Does drinking beer cause leukemia?

Leukemia is cancer of the blood or the bone marrow. This can not be caused by alcoholic beverages. Drinking alcohol (beer, wine or liquor) in moderation is not a risk factor for developing leukemia. Leukemia is the most common type of cancer in children and the most common form of the disease in young people is acute lymphoblastic leukemia (also called acute lymphocytic leukemia, and acute lymphoid leukemia). However, leukemia also occurs among adults and is not only a "childhood disease." The most common known risk factors for leukemia (things that make leukemia more likely) are smoking, exposure to atomic bomb radiation, previous chemotherapy or radiation therapy, human T-cell leukemia virus, myelogysplasctic syndrome and Downs syndrome.
