Alcohol has cardiprotective benefit provided if taken within restricted amount 15 to 30 ml per day, but unfortunately it has high addiction and dependency potential. Also it need to be evaluated with other comorbid factors .so better not to take it. Take your balanced nutritional diet as prescribed by your Physician or dietitian, do regular brisk walk, Keep your Blood pressure and blood sugar under control. Yes meditation do benefit. Take care.

No two people are same and react differently to different things ( thanks to the genetic make up of each individual and other various factors ). So the choice is always left to the person. The basics do remain the same for all people - a balanced diet, living a healthy lifestyle. Rest of the things are personal choices for which the responsibility lies with each individual.
