ABSTRACT
In 571 health professional males we correlated alcohol consumption with serum total cholesterol (C), HDL-C, triglycerides, blood sugarm cigarette consumption, body mass index and arterial blood pressure. An autstanding finding was a positive independent, correlation of alcohol consumption and serum HDL-C levels (r0.22, p<0.0001). Univariate analysis showed correlation of alcohol consumption woth body mass index, blood pressure and total serum C, however this was dependent on age and/or body mass. No correlation was found between alcohol consumption and blood sugar or TG levels. Alcohol consumption did not identify a group of subjects with high risk factors. Consumption of more than 10 cigarettes per day decreased the strenght of the association between elevated HDL levels and alcohol consumption. We conclude that a moderate intake of alcohol is associated to increased serum HDL levels with no significant change of other coronary risk factors
