Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
Good news for you.
One Italian researcher has found out that one or two drink a day after CABG is not a issue instead it helpful for heart to pump more efficiently.
This was also accepted by American Heart Association (AHA).
So don't worry but don't make a habit to drink more, which is not advisable.
Hope this will help you.
Thanks for contacting.
Take care...
