Saya fwd untuk orang Islam yang berpengetahuan dangkal kayak
comberan di musim kemarau di Jakarta berita tentang maanfaat
alkohol yang ditenggak secara moderat untuk mengurangi resiko
penyakti jantung.
Agar jelas: larangan al-Mushaf untuk menkonsumsi alkohol itu,
dilihat dari segi pemeliharan kesehatan, sungguh keliru.

Moderate Alcohol Consumption and Vascular Health
by Aafje Sierksma
A new book on moderate consumption and vascular health, based on a
Dutch cohort has been written by Aafje Sierksma with the support of
Professor D.E. Grobbee and Dr H.F.J. Hendriks of the T.N.O., Nutrition
and Food Research, Zeist, the Netherlands. It is a comprehensive guide
to cardiovascular disease (CVD) including CND and cerebrovascular
disease and peripheral vascular disease that are the leading causes of
morbidity and mortality in the Western world.
Epidemological studies have convincingly shown how moderate alcohol
consumption reduces the risk of CVD. This thesis focuses on the
vascular and biochemical effects of moderate alcohol consumption that
might impact upon vascular health, in order to clarify the mechanism
of CVD protection.
The first chapters look at 4 cross-sectional studies on aortis
stiffness and whether it is affected by alcohol consumption.
The increase of `good' HDL cholesterol by moderate alcohol
consumption is looked at in chapter 4 along with alcohols role in
reverse cholesterol transport (whereby cholesterol is taken to the
liver for disposal as bile acids.)
Chapter 6 gives results of the first randomised diet control trial on
inflammatory factors and C-reactive protein (CRP) (linked with
inflammation) and why it decreases with moderate alcohol consumption.
Diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes and alcohol are covered in
chapter 9 and finally the fibrinolytic effects of moderate
consumption in women.
A conclusion incorporates a general discussion of the findings and
suggests future research topics.
