Well that's what her doc told her to do. I thought I did read that they lowered it to only 1 drink for ladies.
No my Cardio says 1 to 2 drinks. I am a woman and have perfect liver function. Since I eat healthy and have my occasioonal drink. More regular when close to my annual appt. I have lowered all heart attack and stroke risks. Clean bill of health and no Pharmaceuticals.

I heard that wine has a lot of calories and sugars though..a girl at work is italian..healthy..counts her calorie intake daily n if she has a glass of wine it adds a lot of extra calories..she has 1300 cal intake per day for her height..age ..activity etc

I guess theres pros n cons to everything n different doctors opinions..lol

Yea I was saying that it was your doc who told you 1 to 2 drinks. Jewel was saying 2 drinks was too much.

I can see where drinking that much itself relaxes a person so theyre not uptight and less stressed that can induce a heart attack..lol

I don't drink much wine. When I do it is usually a Beau Noir a red table wine.
Usually I have Brandy or Scotch. And like last night sometimes mix Jack and Pepsi or Bourbon and Pepsi. Always after or with a meal and usually only one. All my docs for the last 15 yrs have recommended I have a drink or two. If someone struggles with addiction then no, it would not be wise. If a person also has liver damage or blood sugar issues, or takes certain meds it is not wise. One should always talk to their health care provider.

No Jewel alcohol is a blood thinner, and there is a compound in red wine that is heart healthy. I am spricribed one to two drinks a day so I don't have to take blood thinners.

I've never tried any of them. I have had Hot Dam. But none of the others. I've made my own black cherry brandy. That is good. And the cherries make a fabulous cherry cobbler.

Honestly I don't know. I have tried several, and Spain and Italy I think taste better. But usually my son brings me wine from AR when they come visit. My fav. By far it's Swiss in origin

Heres one of the easiest n good recipes you might like...

4 skinless chicken breasts
1 large can black beans (strained)
1 meduim jar of salsa (spicy as you want)

Put it all in crock pot for 8 hrs on low

Get pita bread..section into quarters. Brush with ol8ve oil..put garlic and parmasean cheese..put in oven at 400 degrees for 15 min until crisp (makes your own pita chips)

Dinner is served...salsa chicken with pita chips!
Ever had fry bread? It's symilar to tortillas & pita bread it sounds perfect for the recipie you quoted. I love mild to medium salsa verde [the green kind] for the veggie flavor, oh, and sour cream only I never brush or sprinkle cheese. I slice, melt & bury with it

The official guidelines from the American Heart Association is 1 to 2 drinks for men..... 1 drink for women. Of course, a doctor can vary their recommendation for each patient. The guidelines are based on population studies.
