Message: <blockquote data-quote="KennyA" data-source="post: 2621861" data-attributes="member: 517579">This is my understanding - what gets turned off is the liver attempting to balance blood glucose to where it thinks it should be.  As a diet only T2 I don't have to worry about injecting or hypos, and I find the way that a glass of red will flatten a significant BG rise from a carb-heavy meal is quite useful. Sometimes I seem to have a slightly higher BG next day, sometimes slightly lower. The excellent NHS dietitian on my "intro to T2 course" made a point of including alcohol and its effects as part of the course - his view was that it's a part of many people's lives and as it does affect health in a number of ways as well as blood glucose levels we'd better know about it.</blockquote>
