Light alcohol consumption was associated with a 25 per cent reduction in additional heart procedures, heart attacks or strokes. However, the study found heavy-drinking bypass patients - those who had six or more drinks a day - were twice as likely to die from heart problems. So the intake should be in moderate volume.
