Drinking and BP

Q: I drink 32oz. of dark red wine a night. My blood pressure is about 130/95 without meds. Is that okay?

A: I am more worried about your drinking habits than your pre-hypertension. Your blood pressure is in the range where you should start making lifestyle changes to get it into better control. You are drinking over an average sized bottle of wine a night. This is not healthy. I suggest you discuss this with your doctor.
