The study did not find a clear association between red wine intake and risk of prostate cancer.
The lack of association for red wine intake was consistently observed when researchers restricted the analyses to those patients with and without a history of PSA screening. In addition, they also did not observe any association with prostate cancer for beer, white wine, liquor or combined alcoholic beverage intake. Neither red wine nor total alcohol consumption were associated with prostate cancer risk in this population of moderate drinkers.
