People with high blood pressure are usually advised to avoid alcohol, but a recent research by U.S. and Dutch researchers proved that a drink or two every day may actually reduce their chances of a heart attack.
The study conducted on 11,000 men showed that small to moderate amounts of alcohol can lower the risk of a heart disease, by increasing the levels of good cholesterol, and by making blood less likely to clot.
But heavy drinking raises the risk of early death even overall, and even from heart disease. Heavy drinkers in general have a bigger risk of high blood pressure, but moderate drinkers may be healthier.
Men are advised not to overindulge or have more than 2 drinks per day. Excess alcohol intake increases blood pressure and chances of a heart disease.
