Can a person who has had a stroke still drink alcohol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Alcohol and stroke: The simple answer is yes, in moderation. There is conflicting research showing that 1-2 drinks per day can actually lower the risk of heart disease and stroke. Heavy drinking can increase the risk of theses diseases. Talking with your doctor is the best way to get guidance concerning consumption of alcohol after having a stroke.
