Is Drinking Wine Safe While Suffering From Thalassemia Trait?
Hi I am a 43 year old mother and I m wondering if drinking wine once a week is ok? I have thalassemia trait and I feel like even if I drink 3 - 4 glasses on one night a week I feel fatigue the next day although I m also eating high iron food. Do you think I shouldn t be ever drinking alcohol or is it ok?
