Wine & Cake

There’s no denying that wine and dessert is my happy place. Unfortunately, this is a particularly potent combination! Since alcohol increases blood sugar levels as well as increases insulin production, the sugar from the dessert plus the sugar from alcohol will turn to fat very quickly. Plus, since the body will first start digesting the glucose in the dessert before digesting the alcohol, the potential for the toxins in the alcohol to flood your body is much higher!
