[QUOTE="Zilsniggy, post: 1733025, member: 222691"] Really it depends if you're on medications or not. A few drinks of an evening aren't too bad, if they're wine, spirits, diet mixers. Cocktails tend to be high in sugar as do alcopops. Beers and ciders are too high carb and tend to play havoc with blood sugar most of the time. Check your BG before and one hour after and then 2 hours after a drink to find out how it affects your sugar, that's really the only way to find out. A rise of less than 2mmol or 20 points would indicate that the drink is ok to have in moderation. [/QUOTE]
