Holiday Parties??
| Wed, 12-10-2003 - 9:21am |
With the holidays around the corner, I was wondering which is a better choice for a beverage (alcoholic). The low carb beer or wine? Not planning to go way off balance but would like to know what would be the best choice in these circumstances.
Thanks for the info!

I'm not much of a drinker, but from the book and others on here, I can tell you that even the low-carb beers have maltose, which is a sugar, in them.
Dr. A says of any alcoholic drink, red wine would be the best because even though it, too, will convert to sugar, it is offset by the heart benefits to it. A glass or two during Phase 2 should be fine.
If I'm wrong about any of this info, someone please correct me!!

But the point of the story (sorry so long) is that red wine is very good for your health... the antioxidant benefits you receive from it really outweigh the alcohol you injest. So have a few glasses and have a great time at the parties!
