Drinking Patterns More Important Than Total Imbibed In Cardivascular Disease Risk

Published November 30, 2008, 3:12 am, Medical News Today

A group of researchers has identified the precise mechanisms by which binge drinking contributes to clogs in arteries that lead to heart attack and stroke, according to a study published today in the journal Atherosclerosis. The works adds to a growing body of evidence that drinking patterns matter as much, if not more, to risk for cardiovascular disease than the total amount consumed.
