Zusammenfassung:: In a diet‐controlled, crossover trial with 10 middle‐aged men and 9 postmenopausal women, baseline concentrations of fibrinogen influenced the magnitude of decrease of fibrinogen after moderate alcohol consumption. The mechanism of reduction is specific for fibrinogen and unrelated to a reduction in C‐reactive protein.
