Alcohol is made when fermentation takes place, which is activated by yeast. The yeasts basically use the sugar to make the alcohol. However there may be some sugar left in some alcoholic beverages.<\/p>\n<p>Alcohol by itself does not spike your blood sugar levels &#8211; That is the good news, the not so good news is that your body will metabolize alcohol first and halt any metabolism of other energy sources. Your body simply has no mechanism to store the energy from alcohol.<\/p>\n<p>The other problem except for the carb content is that some contain gluten and you should avoid those beverages.<\/p>\n<p>Now, we are all adults here and I\u2019ll be honest and tell you that I do enjoy a glass of red wine with dinner and it doesn\u2019t make me gain weight \u2013 plus wine contains Resveratrol which aids in longevity.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a list of alcoholic drinks we recommend in <em>moderation<\/em>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Brandy<\/li>\n<li>Champagne<\/li>\n<li>Cognac<\/li>\n<li>Dry red wine<\/li>\n<li>Dry white wine<\/li>\n<li>Rum<\/li>\n<li>Sparkling Wine<\/li>\n<li>Tequila<\/li>\n<li>Vodka<\/li>\n<li>Whisky<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>AVOID mixing your alcohol with sugary drinks, diet sodas or juices. Rather mix them with water, club soda or on the rocks. It may help to add a slice of lemon or even peppermint leaves.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see in the table below the alcoholic beverages we do recommend have either no carbs or only a few. These carbs should also be taken into consideration when counting your total carbs for the day.<\/p>\n<p>But please note that you get a potato based vodka which has no gluten..<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/myuberdiet.com\/plan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Alcohol-01.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8261\" src=\"http:\/\/myuberdiet.com\/plan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Alcohol-01.png\" alt=\"Alcohol-01\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/myuberdiet.com\/plan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Alcohol-01.png 450w, https:\/\/myuberdiet.com\/plan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Alcohol-01-300x200.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In the table below you can clearly see how many carbs beer and apple ciders actually contain and a lot of beers also contain gluten.
