Wine and diabetes

Tweet

I am not much of a wine drinker but on some holidays I would like to join in with my friends with a nice glass of wine. I thought that since I had diabetes I would not be able to partake of the fruity wines I like. But after much research I found that drinking a glass of wine could actually lower the glucose level in your blood. So now I and you if you are a type 2 diabetic(don't know about type1) can enjoy wine with our meals. So this holiday why not join your friends with a nice glass of wine , it may help you in controling your blood sugar so that you can take less medication. Have you noticed a difference when you check your blood sugar level after having a glass of wine?
