Alcohol consumption is the use of alcoholic drinks or the amount of them consumed by an individual or identifiable population. The British Medical Journal published a study that found that "In western Europe, an important proportion of cases of cancer can be attributable to alcohol consumption, especially consumption higher than the recommended upper limits."[1] From a diet standpoint, Steven Halls, MD writes that an "innocent-looking margarita, cosmopolitan or glass of wine, can gain hundreds of calories that do absolutely nothing to destroy your appetite."[2]
