Can you drink wine after you have stroke?

Answer 1

It appears that drinking wine in moderation after a heart attack improves prognosis. For example, a five-year long study of over 85,000 men who had suffered previous heart attacks found that "moderate alcohol intake was associated with a significant decrease in total mortality." Researchers also found that their younger subjects experienced the same health benefits from alcohol as their older subjects.

Drinking in moderation after a heart attack has also been found beneficial to women.

Answer 2

Wine (and beer and spirits) promotes good health after an ischemic stroke because it thins the blood and otherwise improves its profile.
