Stomach cancer and drinking too much aren’t necessarily connected. I’ve been told that people who drink alcohol and smoke tobacco regularly are at higher risk for stomach cancer, but you can check out the risks of stomach cancer at the National Cancer Institute website, where it lists smoking, but not alcohol consumption, among possible factors. So I’d say that smoking has a higher correlation to the disease than stomach cancer and drinking too much.
