New research shows alcohol is a contributing factor in many cancer deaths.
Researchers say the alcohol consumption they're talking about isn't necessarily a lot.
The study found about a third of people who died from alcohol-related cancers only drank an average amount--or a drink-and-a-half a day.
This study shows that alcohol is a key factor in almost 15 percent of breast cancer deaths in women.
It also showed that for men, cancers of the mouth, throat, and esophagus were the most common forms linked to alcohol.
Experts say researchers have long assumed that drinking alcohol increases the chances of getting cancer, but this new study solidifies that fact.
A new study shows premature births have dropped in areas where smoking bans have gone into effect.
This new research from Belgium shows that the number of premature births fell for four years in a row after a workplace smoking ban was enacted.
Smoking during pregnancy has been shown to impede the baby's growth in the womb and increase the chance of pre-term birth.
Premature birth is defined as giving birth before 37 weeks of pregnancy. Full term is defined as 40 weeks.
