Alcohol use is one of the most important and potentially modifiable risk factors for cancer in Germany. The more and the longer a person drinks, the higher the risk of cancer. Even modest use of alcohol may increase cancer risk. Statistically, every German drinks more than 100 gram of alcohol per week; this amount is currently considered to be the limit of low-risk use. Alcohol is causally associated with oropharyngeal and larynx cancer, esophageal squamous cell cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, and colorectal cancer. People with long-term risky alcohol use should be encouraged to join programs of cancer screening. Alcohol cessation appears to be effective in reducing the alcohol-induced, increased cancer risk.
在德国，饮酒是癌症最重要且可能可控的风险因素之一。一个人饮酒量越大、时间越长，患癌风险就越高。即使适度饮酒也可能增加患癌风险。据统计，每个德国人每周饮酒量超过100克；目前这一饮酒量被视为低风险饮酒的上限。饮酒与口咽癌、喉癌、食管鳞状细胞癌、肝细胞癌、乳腺癌和结直肠癌存在因果关系。应鼓励长期有高风险饮酒行为的人参加癌症筛查项目。戒酒似乎能有效降低因饮酒导致的患癌风险增加。
