[QUOTE="Cocosilk, post: 2355641, member: 501623"] Can someone explain to me how it works when you drink a glass of wine with a plate of pasta? I know alcohol causes your liver not to function correctly and can prevent it from producing glycogen and so can lead to hypos. But if you are eating carbs while having an alcoholic drink, what will your blood sugar do? Does the alcohol delay your body from dealing with the sugars and your blood sugar stays low until the alcohol wears off? and then do you have a late spike? Or does it mean your blood sugar just doesn't spike as high if you include alcohol with a meal that contains carbs? [/QUOTE]
