A member asked:

If i drink faster and on an empty stomach, i get buzzed on only 4-5 ounces of wine. so, less calories & blood sugar. what are the health consequences?

Specializes in Psychiatry

It depends: Health consequences depend on what you do when you're buzzed. Plus it sounds like you're drinking wind specifically for the buzz, which could be an addictive pattern.
