Coronary heart disease, strictly speaking, should not involve alcohol consumption because its risk factors include age, gender, family history, abnormal blood lipids, drinking, high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking, obesity, and lack of exercise. Additionally, excessive drinking can easily exacerbate coronary heart disease and provoke heart attacks. However, consuming small amounts occasionally might not immediately trigger or worsen a cardiac incident. Therefore, if you must drink, it is advised to do so in moderation and primarily choose red wine.
