Does drinking and tobacco cause cancer? why people still drinking for more than decade doesn't get any cancer at all?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Smoking is a well-established cause of cancers, especially within the lung, and chronic alcohol ingestion can provoke numerous problems. However, due to biological and genetic variations, some humans are far more resistant to these negative outcomes than others. Proper diet, regular exercise, and management of emotional upset, coupled with avoidance of alcohol and tobacco may be most prudent.
