Can hypertensive patients drink yellow wine, and what are the effects?

Generally, patients with hypertension should not drink yellow wine, as it is not conducive to maintaining stable blood pressure. The detailed explanation is as follows:

Hypertensive patients should avoid alcohol consumption in daily life, including beer, white spirits, and red wine. After drinking, ethanol in alcohol is metabolized into acetaldehyde, which initially dilates and then constricts capillaries. This may cause a temporary drop in blood pressure followed by a subsequent rise, leading to blood pressure instability. Alcohol can also stimulate the sympathetic nervous system, resulting in abnormal constriction of small arteries, increased blood pressure, elevated heart rate, and enhanced myocardial contractility. These effects may lead to myocardial ischemia or hypoxia, increase cardiac workload, and trigger reflexive blood pressure elevation.

In addition, alcohol consumption significantly increases the risk of cerebrovascular events such as cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral infarction in hypertensive patients. If any discomfort occurs, patients should promptly seek medical evaluation and receive targeted treatment under a doctor's guidance.
