Red Wine Cuts Lung Cancer Risk Study Says

Enjoying a glass or two of red wine daily may slash your risk of developing lung cancer by 60 percent if you're a smoker. A study published in the October issue of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention, found that moderate consumption of red wine lowered the risk of lung cancer in men.

Good old-fashioned grape juice (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/03/27/health/webmd/main3973006.shtml) works as well and for cancers in general:

Researcher Paul Okunieff, MD, chief of radiation oncology at the University of Rochester Medical Center, says red wine consumption during chemotherapy or radiation treatment has not been well studied, but it's not prohibited. Okunieff says if a cancer patient already drinks red wine moderately, most physicians wouldn't tell the patient to give it up. But perhaps a better choice might be to drink as much red or purple grape juice, which also contains resveratrol, as desired.

That would give me the "Marias."
