beer and wine

Hi,
The chemo nurses told me the reason they do not recommend alcohol during treatment is that everything (including chemo and alcohol) goes through the liver and alcohol can put extra stress on the liver. I think if a person wants to drink during treatment he or she should limit the amount of alcohol.
