Doesn't the liver stop putting out glucose when there is alcohol in the blood? I have heard a diabetic should eat carbs if they want to drink. Alcohol lowers sugars, however there are different kinds of alcohol, some sweet, and that can raise sugars. If not sooner, then later. I do not like straight wine. I prefer to have a glass of two thirds diet sprite and one third red wine. It reminds me of a sparkling wine and because I have gotten use to it, I get the full benefits of having a glass of wine.
