For example, alcohol can also lead to liver damage which consequently hampers your body’s ability to produce proteins that regulate blood clotting.
Alcohol can lead to weight gain as well which puts more lipids in your blood, increasing your risk of clotting. And the list just goes on.
Despite these dangerous mechanisms, the organisation notes that alcohol could offer some benefits for people with a family history of clots or heart disease as long as you stick to one serving as this may slightly thin your blood.
However, it concludes that if you already suffer from blood clots, then alcohol should be completely out of question for you.
