  1. no but it thins your blood which is good for those with blood clots


  2. no when u drink beer u lose brain cells so if u lose that u must lose a little blood

  3. no, it thins your blood. Say you were to get cut, you would bleed more because it takes it longer to form a clot.

    "Thinning" applies to blood in the same way as it applies to paint or ink or orange juice: thin blood is more liquid (watery) than thick blood. Having thin blood--not too thin, of course--is good because it lowers the risk of heart attack and stroke. That's what both medical people and laypeople mean when they talk about thinning blood.

    Researchers have confirmed that drinking even moderate amounts of alcohol can affect blood coagulation -- acting as a "blood thinner" -- which can have both positive and negative health effects.

    Population studies have shown that moderate drinkers tend to have lower rates of heart disease but higher rates of bleeding-type strokes than abstainers. A potential mediator of these two contrasting effects of alcohol may be platelet function.

    A study in the October 2005 issue of Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research confirms that moderate drinking has effects on blood coagulation – primarily as a "blood thinner" – which can have both positive and negative effects.
