    One to two drinks a day for a man has been shown to improve heart health, by improving the heart's circulation. Red wine specifically contains anti-oxidants that can decrease substances that do cellular damage. However, more that the two drinks does more damage to the liver and other organs, and will negate the heart benefits. Moderation is the key. Good luck!

    You must drink every day, or you will die of dehydration. If you mean drinking alcohol, it is good for you as long as you do not abuse it. I drink alcohol only occasionally, but I seem to have a foggy head the next day, even after only one or two drinks. So the nurse is right, If you must drink alcohol, drink something that is beneficial to your health.

    Drinking very moderately, 1 serving a day, has been shown to help reduce heart attacks.
