Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Moderate alcohol consumption, defined as up to one drink per day for women and up to two drinks per day for men, can be part of a reasonable intake for adults of legal drinking age, including those with hypertension, under certain conditions. It may also reduce the risk for ischemic stroke, although this should be balanced with the potential risks associated with alcohol consumption.
