Hi there thanks for posting your query at health care magic
Dear I my tell you that alcohol decreases the lower esophageal sphincter tone . Therefore he needs to cot down on his alcohol consumption . The maximum he can have his 2 drinks in moderation . That also means that one drink means 50 ml . Alcohol only useful if taken moderation .
