About these substances

Plain-language summary of each regulated substance found above, drawn from public regulatory data.

Alcoholic beverages (ethanol) (CAS 64-17-5)

Alcoholic beverages contain ethanol, a type of alcohol that is the key ingredient in drinks like beer, wine, and spirits. Ethanol is also used in some household products, such as hand sanitizers and cleaning solutions. The World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies alcoholic beverages as Group 1, meaning they are carcinogenic to humans. This classification is based on strong evidence linking alcohol consumption to several types of cancer, including those of the mouth, throat, liver, and breast. IARC's evaluation, published in Monograph Volume 100E, notes that the risk increases with the amount of alcohol consumed. It's important to understand that this is a regulatory classification, not a medical diagnosis. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.
