What do you think it is?

It’s alcohol!

You are not wrong to enjoy a holiday toast, but alcohol is a well-established colorectal carcinogen and the risk climbs with dose. Large pooled studies show that heavy intake can raise colorectal cancer risk by about 50 percent compared with little or no drinking. Ethanol is converted to acetaldehyde, which damages DNA and impairs repair enzymes. Alcohol also disrupts the gut barrier, alters the microbiome, promotes oxidative stress, and can lower folate levels that protect colon cells. If you drink in the coming weeks, set a limit, alternate with water, and keep some zero-proof options on the table.
