Alcohol products should have cancer warning labels like tobacco: AIIMS researchers
Researchers at AIIMS have called for strong, evidence-based warning labels on alcohol products to prevent avoidable cancers, building on India's success with tobacco warnings. They highlighted that alcohol, like tobacco, is a proven carcinogen, yet awareness remains low. Data from 2016 suggested 6.6% of Disease Adjusted Life Years in India were attributable to alcohol consumption, they said.
