One of the things that alcohol is associated with is an increase in blood pressure. Of course because it is broken down in the liver, any individual with liver disease should not be drinking any alcohol. In addition, alcohol can exacerbate heart burn and acid reflux.
Drink alcohol cautiously if you are trying to lose weight. The calories are mostly empty and do not make the brain think that you are full. In fact alcohol can stimulate the appetite and you will actually eat more calories than you should.
So use caution when drinking alcohol. The biggest factor is moderation.
