Epidemiologists evaluate the potential cancer-protective effects of red wine by comparing its associated cancer risks to those of white wine. Not all alcoholic beverages are perceived equally, with red wine often considered a healthier option.

Alcohol consumption has long been associated with an increased risk of cancer. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies alcohol as a Group 1 carcinogen, meaning there is strong evidence linking it to several types of cancer.

Research from Brown University reveals no significant difference in overall cancer risk between red and white wine. However, white wine consumption is associated with a higher risk of skin cancer due to its higher levels of acetaldehyde and the potential influence of other factors.

Red wine is often perceived as the ‘healthier’ choice, given the presence of antioxidant resveratrol. Does that give it an edge over white wine when it comes to cancer risk?

Many of us have heard that red wine—packed with antioxidants—might actually protect against cancer. But a new buzz-killing study says otherwise: your merlot is no healthier than your moscato.

A common perception is that not all alcoholic beverages are alike. Red wine, for instance, is often considered a healthier choice, with many believing its high resveratrol content - an antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties - offers protection against cancer.

A new study from Brown University’s School of Public Health has found no significant difference in cancer risk between red and white wine, challenging the
