Wine, on the other hand, is made from fermented grapes, which Nguyen maintains is less likely to spike insulin levels than beer is. We’ve all heard the saying, “beer before liquor, never been sicker, liquor before beer and you’re in the clear,” but the real wisdom is knowing that wine won’t make you fat. Cheers!
