Hi dear As per some recent research papers it states that no amount of alcohol is good for ur body and if u already have some disease then it is all the more reason to stop any sort of addiction. Having said that i understand that it's not easy to stop alcohol at once specially for people who have a habit of it so I would suggest that please take help from a counsellor to get rid of it . Till then try to reduce the amount as much as possible Take care
