For years, there have been claims that red wine can be good for your heart, but the World Heart Federation argues otherwise.
“We know from lots of studies that alcohol does raise blood pressure, a little bit, not a lot, but you increase blood pressure even a little bit, it increases the risk of stroke. And so, the idea that maybe a drink or two a day is good, probably is wrong,” explained Dr. Steven Nissen, a cardiologist for Cleveland Clinic.
Nissen said it’s clear from all of the research available that alcohol isn’t beneficial. However, if someone does want to drink, moderation is key, but even that can be a slippery slope.
