Alcohol Research
A lot of researchers have examined the link between alcohol and colorectal cancer risk. The results suggest that liquor and beer, in certain quantities, increase a person's risk while wine may offer a protective effect.
Impact of Cigarettes and Alcohol on Colorectal Cancer Risk
Researchers examined data from 845 people with colorectal cancer to determine if cigarettes and alcohol may have influenced their chances of developing the disease. Their findings, published in the journal Epidemiology, were pretty straightforward.

Wine May Lower Risk of Colorectal Cancer
In terms of colorectal cancer risk, it seems beer is bad but wine is fine. A study published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology found that heavy beer drinkers were more likely to develop colorectal cancer than non-beer drinkers. Wine, however, seemed to have the opposite effect.
