Hi I am in need of advice please our town has a festival this week my DN said its fine to have couple glasses of dry wine during the day but I dnt know if it's red or white I would be very grateful for any advice u could give me as I dnt want to put myself at risk
 
 
I prefer red , but which ever enjoy but not on an empty stomach
 
Red wine has little effect on my bg levels, try a couple of glasses before the weekend in the comfort of your own home and see what effect it has on you. Enjoy your festival.
 
i just about drink a bottle of red each night( I know its wrong!!) and it seems to reduce my sugar levels somehow.
I wonder if it's reducing your levels, or just reducing the speed at which your liver releases glucose (because it's too busy processing alcohol instead)? Red wine is my preference because it has less sugar than most whites. A dry white, such as a Muscadet or Reisling, probably isn't too bad but I'm guessing that some of the more popular varieties, such as Sauvignon Blanc and - even more so - Chardonnay, are quite high in sugars. As for a nice Sauternes or Montbazillac, don't even go there

Me thinks you are heading for serious problems!
