Booze and carbs The liver does not metabolise alcohol into sugar. In fact, most people will experience a dip in their blood sugar levels when they drink alcohol. Alcohol is eventually broken down by the liver into acetate, and finally into carbon dioxide and water – not sugar. When you’re feeling like a beer, consider a Guinness – it has fewer carbs, calories and grams of alcohol than many of the more popular lagers on the market. Plus it’s fuller-bodied, which means it’ll take you longer to drink and leave you feeling more satisfied.
