The effect of ethanol on the blood glucose level was studied in 108 human subjects after administration of table wines and dilute aqueous solutions of ethanol comparable to the ethanol content of the wine. The decrease in blood glucose was approximately 10% after both the wine and the alcohol administration. The carbohydrate content of these dry wines was too low to affect the blood glucose. The rise in blood ethanol level was greater after dilute alcohol administration. The blood ethanol levels after wine administration are also more constant and therefore more predictable.
