d think twice about
wine if I had very high triglycerides, since
alcohol raises triglycerides. (Once again there is the famous Tim Russert story.)
OTOH, alcohol raises HDL, so it'd be presumably especially beneficial for those with low HDL.
By then daily alcohol can raise BP, so those with hypertension would have to take that into account.Then again, some people get a very pronounced (if short lived) vasodilation effect from alcohol, which should be beneficial for blood pressure.
