    I have changed from drinking beer to red wines, because I have heard red wine is better for my diabetes. Is that true?

    I don't know that it's better for us but it is lower in carbs. 

    I enjoy a red wine 🍷 now and again but I am  patiently waiting for a low carb gluten free beer to hit the shelves as I am also coeliac.  

    A single G&T (zero carb  tonic)  does not affect my levels at all, and is so refreshing.

    A "low carb, gluten free beer" - sounds disgusting !

    Hahn Ultra Crisp is a low carb gluten free beer readily available in bottle shops in 330ml bottles. Carbs per bottle 4.5g, sugar 0.3g, alcohol 4.2%. And tastes good too.

    I love red wine but and when I have it it lowers my sugar level. I have to eat something with it. No other alcohol does this too me. But I'm a cheap drunk so one glass and that's it. Lol.
