[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 129843, member: 18023"] I think I will need to drink at least 5 oz of wine a day to increase HDL cholesterol by 10%. This seems like a good way to raise my HDL, the only downside I see is 5 oz of wine is ~133 calories. I have read this can also increase my insulin sensitivity, but on the other hand is a source of carbs. Maybe 3 grams, not horrible. I usually have 1 or at most 2 beers on Saturday, that is not enough to help with HDL. Daily, I could have one or two of the following. 12 ounces of regular beer, which is usually about 5% alcohol 5 ounces of wine, which is typically about 12% alcohol 1.5 ounces of distilled spirits, which is about 40% alcohol Ethanol content of these drinks are 0.6 fl oz or 14 grams of pure alcohol. I like wine, beer with a meal, margaritas. I think Margaritas are more calories and carbs, maybe 160 calories 7g of carbs. I could go with a shot of brandy over ice. Two normal beers are likely too many calories, and I would rather drink less liquid than 12 oz or 2x12 oz.. Anyone try medicinal alcohol to increase heart health and HDL? What did you use, what are the results, any doctors recommending this? [/QUOTE]
