Media reports frequently cite observational studies and meta-analyses to promote the reputed cardiovascular benefits of moderate alcohol consumption, however it is unclear whether public opinion or drinking behavior align with these reports. We administered an anonymous, single-center, 35-question, cross-sectional survey among patients hospitalized for acute cardiac illnesses from June to September 2019 who were eligible for cardiac rehabilitation. We assessed patient opinions toward alcohol use, perceptions of alcohol’s health impact, and role of media in forming these beliefs. We hypothesized that drinking habits are associated with beliefs about the health benefits of alcohol consumption. Of 300 patients approached, 290 (97%) completed the survey. Most (69%) reported having heard moderate alcohol use is heart healthy from one or more sources including: TV (61%), family/friends (33%), newspapers (21%) and internet (10%) although only 19% reported believing these reports. In total, 12 (4%) patients reported intentionally increasing alcohol intake due to the reported beneficial health effects. There was a strong association between binge drinking and increasing alcohol use to improve cardiac health [OR 8.8 (95% CI 2.7, 29)]. Given the known cardiotoxic effects of alcohol, particularly in large doses, strategies aimed at population-based education regarding the unhealthy cardiovascular impact of alcohol use is needed, especially among binge drinkers.
