Hi guys, before my p.e,I enjoyed a drink or two or three socially.doctors told me i can only have a glass of wine or two and need to limit alcohol intake. How do I deal with this? Has any body been advised to limit alcohol or stop altogether.

Hi,
?I believe alcohol actually thins the blood as well, especially wine, don't quote me on that , I'm more than likely to be wrong
. I remember my doctor saying this years ago, hence why they believe wine, especially red is good for the ticker, recent studies by some seem to now disagree with that now.

It's the only alcohol I take. I don't take any creams or spirits cz am scared of the effects.

Hi,
?I did a quick search, just to make sure I wasn't pulling your leg
. I knew I had heard it from somewhere, just wasn't 100% sure, my retired GP told me this years ago. I borrowed this from elsewhere.
Drinking alcohol has effects on blood coagulation. If you drink a moderate amount of alcohol—defined as one drink per day—it may have the benefit of acting as a blood thinner and be protective against clotting in clogged arteries, like aspirin. Feb 24, 2018
