Not all alcoholic drinks are bad for you.
Sure, there probably aren’t any alcoholic drinks that are “good” for you unless you restrict your alcohol intake to something below moderation..
The old Guinness advertising is probably illegal these days ..
But if you’re on a diet or simply watching your waistline (assuming you can actually see your waist .. ) then you might have laboured over the issue of which tipple will do your waist the least damage…
LifeHacker has a pretty good article covering some of the basics.
Some takeaways:
- Mixers ie. Coke etc., are full of sugar and calories
- Wine and spirits (neat) are the lowest in terms of calories
You can check the calories of a lot of popular drinks here (yes – there’s a website for it!)
