Background— Heart failure (HF) is the leading cause of hospitalization among the elderly, and 1 in 5 adults aged 40 years will develop HF in their lifetime. Data on the effects of moderate alcohol consumption on the risk of HF have been sparse and inconsistent. This study sought to evaluate the association between moderate alcohol consumption and incident HF. Methods and Results— A total of 21 601 participants of the Physicians' Health Study I who were free of HF and provided data on alcohol…

In the community, alcohol consumption of up to 7 drinks/week at early-middle age is associated with lower risk for future HF, with a similar but less definite association in women than in men.

Stratified analysis showed heavy drinking was associated with increased HF risk only in those with ECG evidence of myocardial ischaemia, and there was no evidence that light-tomoderate drinking is beneficial for the prevention of HF in older men without a history of an MI.

In this cohort of Swedish men, there was a U-shaped relationship between alcohol consumption and HF incidence, with a nadir at light-to-moderate intake, and heavy intake did not seem protective.

It is demonstrated that a higher intake of whole grain breakfast cereals is associated with a lower risk of HF, and specific nutrients that are responsible for such a protection are determined.

increasing levels of moderate alcohol consumption are associated with a decreasing risk of heart failure among older persons, independent of a number of confounding factors and does not appear to be entirely mediated by a reduction in MI risk.

Coronary heart disease and hypertension were the most common concomitant diseases and mortality after the diagnosis was increased eight times, while risk factors were similar to those in coronary heart disease, and also alcohol abuse, but not high total cholesterol, low physical activity or psychological stress.

Self-reported moderate alcohol consumption in the year prior to AMI is associated with reduced mortality following infarction, and the association was similar for total and cardiovascular mortality, among both men and women, and among different types of alcoholic beverages.

There is some emerging evidence that suggests light drinking (1 to 14 drinks per week) is safe and even beneficial in HF patients with ischemic left ventricular dysfunction (LVD), however, there are no effects of light drinking inHF patients with nonischemic LVD.
