How does alcohol moderation affect lipid profiles?

Moderate alcohol intake, such as a small amount of red wine, may raise HDL cholesterol slightly. However, excessive alcohol consumption raises triglycerides and total cholesterol, outweighing potential benefits. For most people, a balanced diet without reliance on alcohol is preferable for heart health.
