Heavy alcohol consumption (more than six drinks per day) has been linked to heart disease in HIV-infected people. Therefore, stopping or cutting down on their alcohol consumption may help to reduce the risk of heart disease.
What does moderate drinking mean? There is no one definition of moderate drinking, but generally the term is used to describe a lower-risk pattern of drinking. According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, drinking in moderation is defined as having no more than 1 drink per day for women and no more than 2 drinks per day for men. This definition is referring to the amount consumed on any single day and is not intended as an average over several days.
An estimated 50% of adults with HIV infection have a history of alcohol problems.
Very heavy drinkers will often have esophageal varices (dilated veins in the esophagus), signs of liver disease, brain damage, which symptoms could include a loss of cognitive function and confusion.
