The alcohol relationship with cancer has grown more complex. New study has found a link between drinking and melanoma. Melanoma is the most serious form of skin cancer and somehow white wine shows the highest risk of getting it.

Previous studies have found differing results on alcohol’s links to cancer. When the body metabolizes ethanol, some is turned into acetaldehyde, a carcinogen that can impair cells’ efforts to repair DNA. It’s proved that heavy alcohol consumption leads to cancers of the liver, pancreas, colon and rectum. However several studies have found also a link between even light drinking and breast cancer.

The new study about white wine consumption was published in the American Association for Cancer Research’s journal Cancer, Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention.  Eunyoung Cho who is an author, is an associate professor of dermatology and epidemiology at Brown University.

Why white wine not a red one? The researchers theorized that because wine has higher levels of pre-existing acetaldehyde than beer or spirits, it poses a higher risk. And while red and white wine have similar levels, the antioxidants in red wine may counterbalance the risk. (Previous studies have found that the antioxidant resveratrol may reduce the risk of melanomas and protect the body from sunburns.)

Today, there are many products on the market that promote anti-aging benefits of the ingredients. The one thing that you need to remember is that price does not always reflect quality, and you want to be certain that the things you choose to use in your skincare routine are made with quality ingredients that have benefits to your skin.

Perhaps one of the most exciting ingredients to hit the market lately is hyaluronic acid. If you purchase a serum that contains hyaluronic acid and a minimal of other ingredients, you are sure to be pleased with the results you will see on your face, neck and decolltage.

The way that hyaluronic acid works to help improve the appearance of your skin is through attracting water to plump up and fill in your fine lines and wrinkles. The products that are made with this powerful ingredient may also minimize the appearance of your pores.

It does not take very much of the serum to have dramatic effects on your appearance. Best used just after washing your face, you can apply a small amount to the areas of your skin that you are most concerned about, such as crows feet and laugh lines. You should let it dry entirely prior to proceeding with your skin care and makeup routine for the day.

The hyaluronic acid can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. This attraction to water is why the serum is so effective at eliminating the appearance of fine lines, and reducing the harshness of those that are deeper.

If you want a fantastic addition to your routine that will allow you to look younger without having to undergo surgery or other invasive procedures, then a hyaluronic acid serum is the best choice.
