Many people wonder whether it’s OK to drink alcohol on a low carb / keto diet.
If you are meticulous about what wine you choose, then it usually works out great.
Please have a look at these guides:

This was very informative. I usually get vodka tonic thinking it was low in carbs. I had no idea that tonic has so many carbs. I'll be ordering vodka and soda water from now on! thank.
IMPORTANT TO NOTE
Consumption of alcoholic beverages impairs your ability to drive a car or operate machinery and may cause health problems if consumed in excess. Note that on a low carb diet you might need significantly less alcohol to get intoxicated. Women should not drink alcoholic beverages during pregnancy.
Also be aware that if you are on medication it is always best to check there are no contraindications with alcohol.
Jan, this was so informative, especially the second link you gave to the best and worst drinks.
Thank you - Tina
It's interesting how many things we forget have carbs. It's always good to have a reminder. :) Happy new week Jan.
...alcohol isn't for me!
Interesting, but I don't drink. Did you know they have come out with a diabetic Barbie?
Gracias por la información. Pero no me gusta el alcohol. Te mando un beso.
I drink very little alcoholic drinks.
I have never heard of low carb wine. Interesting.
I do not drink alcohol at all.
Such interesting information.
In general, alcohol requires caution!!
I don't have a problem. I don't like the taste of alcohol, or how it makes me feel after a half glass of wine.
Interesting point about the occasional glass of dry white or red wine. Thank you for sharing the guide's link.
I don't think I will be concerned about it, I'm lucky in that respect, Jan and thankful.
Very helpful to many dear Jan 👍
Blessings 🙏🥰
Thank you, Jan. Good article.
God bless.
Yeah alcohol is also a carcinogen
Thanks Jan, for the link and information.
Have a great day!

Hello ... and many thanks for your comment and question.
Yes, I did know about diabetic Type 1 Barbie, I have a post in draft about this which I will soon publish.
All the best Jan
Very interesting. Thank you.
Good to know -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
This is why I no longer drink beer and stick to champagne or dry wines.
Thanks for sharing good information Jan, as always your posts are. I don't drink but it is good information to know. Blessings to you!
I don't drink wine or any other alcohol.
I don't drink at all.
great info for your readers, i don't drink wine or alcohol, simply because i do not like the taste or the way it makes me feel!!
I don't drink alcohol, but I'm sure this information is very helpful for those who do. Oh...and we went marketing today and I now have two eggplants! :) Tomorrow we are having the Crispy Gluten Free baked chicken! :)
Yes, you can usually drink wine on a low-carb or keto diet if you're meticulous about your choic. The key is to select wines that are lower in carbohydrates.
Don't drink these days but when I did I didn't like wine. My drink of choice was Sake. I guess that's a rice wine! But regular wine no and not Prosecco either, so many like it! Give me Shloer instead!
I haven't drank since my early 20's. Hubby hasn't in many years either, guess we just went away from it, saves money anyway :)
Rick and I will be reading this one carefully!
I enjoy an occasional glass of wine but this article was both interesting and informative. Thank you, Jan.
