Calorie alcohol


Calorie alcoholIf you are one of those who are watching their figure, then you already know that the calorie content of alcohol is very high. Of course, due to many beliefs, including healthy life, you should refrain from intoxicating drinks in General, but what to do if you have a holiday, and want to treat yourself to a cocktail or a bottle of beer on the weekend? You can certainly replace the alcohol with mineral water or juice, or just try to find a compromise, considering the caloric content of alcohol, but rather each of its species, and choosing the least harmful for the shape option.



"Drunk" calories


If you ask the opinion of nutritionists about the appropriateness of the use of alcohol during the diet, it is possible to deal with two completely contradictory statements. Some of them are categorical, and believe that the caloric content of alcohol is so great that not compatible with diet. Others are more supportive and encourage girls dieters to give yourself sometimes slack and allow a small dose of alcohol to relieve stress and tension.




Gourmets and Epicureans, which traditionally are the French, not only let myself dry wine during lunch or dinner, but I think that this addition to the delicious food is beneficial to the organism as a whole. And this is understandable, because despite the fact that the caloric content of alcohol, namely dry wine is substantial, it can increase metabolism, eliminate congestion, to prevent the formation of blood clots. Dry wine in small amounts is also a storehouse of vitamins and minerals, excellent antidepressant and just a wonderful way to complement your meal.




American nutritionists also quite loyal to the use of alcoholic beverages during the diet. They include in their diet: sparkling wine, whiskey, sweet liqueurs and champagne. Calorie alcohol such species is very high. Especially high-calorie sweet liqueurs. But if you eat them in reasonable quantities, they will not affect your body, so think nutritionists in America. Moreover, if we consider alcohol as a way to relieve stress, it can prevent excessive eating people who are used to "jam" their feelings.




Another good news for the fans to enjoy, it turns out that the caloric content of alcohol yields to a sweet soft drinks such as Pepsi, Cola, sprite, Fanta. So if you have the choice to drink a glass of Cola or 150 grams of dry wine, feel free to choose the latter. This dose of alcohol will not harm your health, and the figure in particular.




What about the beer? After all, we all have heard about the beer belly, and the other delights of intoxicating drink. Actually the situation is not so catastrophic. The average caloric content of one bottle (0.5 l) is about 200 kcal. Beer "light" lower calorie product compared to traditional varieties. Therefore those wishing to lose weight you can safely indulge in this drink, unless of course it is not systematically.




Currently, to the surprise of supporters diet food developed whole alcoholic diet. For example, those of the French in honor of the wine diet. They believe that such a diet has a beneficial effect on the digestive system and promotes weight loss, despite the high caloric content of alcohol.




If you intend to include alcoholic drinks in your diet, we suggest you to count the calories of alcohol. For this purpose it is necessary to determine the degree of the main component of alcoholic beverage. For example, "Bloody Mary" consists of vodka (50 g) and tomato juice (100 g). Calorie vodka in this proportion is about 130 kcal, tomato juice by itself refers to diet drinks low in calories. Thus, this cocktail will not affect the shape if you eat it in reasonable doses.




But it is also worth to note that the caloric content of alcohol is not the most basic. Consider the property of strong drinks to kindle your appetite. This is why nutritionists recommend drinking alcohol in small doses. Two glasses of champagne or dry wine would be enough. If you prefer stronger drinks, limit 100 grams.
