What is the best alcoholic drink for someone on a diet?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
NONE: Know this:all alcohol is sugar.It is a complex carbohydrate that has at least 100 calories per gram.Now that said;some beers brag that they have only "68" calories per can, and"lite" beers are often 100 calories.Give me my 1 oz of vodka over ice for more "bang for my calorie".

Carbs: I agree with dr. Greer. Why take in empty carbohydrate calories if you goal is to lose or maintain weight?
