only one study has shown that red wine can potentially benefit people with type 2 diabetes so there seems to be no reason why you cannot have a glass or two per day assuming you are on your medication following an otherwise good diabetic diet and check your blood sugars regularly. cheers.
red wine lowering blood sugar level. hi . i have type 2 diabetes last few years. i am using metformin 2+2 tablets. i noticed that red wine is very good for lowering blood sugar. yesterday after supper i had 2 glasses of red wine and before going to bed i had only 3. 8 sugar in my blood. i understand that doctors don't want to say that alcohol is good but red wine for me (glass or two) is very good. i didn't try and prove with other alcohols but i can suggest 2 glasses of red wine a day. regards. zoran markanovic. dartmouth ns. canada
