I’m not here to talk about the rights and wrongs or damage alcohol causes, you’re an adult and that’s for you to decide. Low-carb beers aren’t all they’re cracked up to be, because they contain the same amount of alcohol as regular beer, and that’s where much of the problem lies (rather than the carbs). For example, drinking can make you more likely to have a hypo, because alcohol interferes with your blood sugar levels. Although there is no clear indication on how alcohol is helping control one’s glycemic index, it might be possible that the properties of low carb beer can prevent the rise of one’s blood glucose levels especially after eating.

German-grown hops endow this craft offering with a bitter kick that reminds you you’re drinking a real beer, not some watered-down imposter. How and Why Alcohol Affects Us “…alcohol molecules slow down signals from the brain for actions such as walking and talking” Alcohol is actually the fourth macronutrient, providing our body with 7 calories per gram.It appears that there are several benefits to be enjoyed when you take low carb beer in moderation even when you have diabetes.
