Alcohol mouth wash is associated with oral cancer

[–] Five@slrpnk.net 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

During the last thirty years, there has been an attempt to find a possible association between the use of mouthwash with alcohol and its relationship with oral cancer. However, epidemiologically, there has been no conclusive evidence. Few epidemiological studies are found in the literature and they have contradictory results.

-- Alcohol-based mouthwash as a risk factor of oral cancer: A systematic review

Oral application of ethanol is correlated with cancer, but statistically significant results are associated with heavy alcohol consumption, re-enforcing my point that dosage determines effect. If you already start the day with a whiskey breakfast, mouthwash isn't doing you any favors health-wise.
