The U.S. Surgeon General is calling for a warning label on alcohol, saying; “alcohol is a well-established, preventable cause of cancer, responsible for about 100,000 cases of cancer and 20,000 cancer deaths every year in the united states.

The New York Times reported on Friday that the U.S. Surgeon General revealed findings through an advisory from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services claiming that alcohol is linked to at least seven types of cancer and is urging Congress to pass laws requiring alcohol companies to update their labels warning consumers of these risks.
