I was diagnosed type 2 a couple months ago (a1c of 10) switched from beer to wine, which is why I'm lurking around these forums now so I can still make use of these carboys. I started having 2 "glasses" (half a bottle) most evenings while cooking and eating instead if 2-3 stouts/IPAs, and haven't found it to raise blood glucose, if anything it lowers it slightly. I drink dry reds, garnacha, cabs, merlot, syrah, old vine zins, etc.. nothing sweet. Got another appointment in a couple of days with a doctor that supposedly actually knows what he's doing and will get a professional opinion on it then. Hope it's good cause I've got 2 batches going and a WE Bravado kit on standby at the moment.
If it's worth anything, fasting glucose dropped 100 points over the first few weeks by cutting out carbs and sugar, while having a drink in the evening, so don't think the wine is hurting glucose levels.
