.
Have a Drink People .Yes, a new study has revealed that drinking a glass of wine after a hard day’s work doesn’t make women fat, contrary to the dietary advice that alcohol consumption leads to weight gain
In fact, researchers have found that women who drink wine are likely to gain very less weight than those who stick to mineral water — moreover, moderate drinkers also possess a lower risk of obesity
than teetotallers.
According to the researchers, the study suggests a calorie from alcohol has less impact on weight than a calorie from other foods and that the way the body deals with alcohol is more complex than realised.
And, one theory is that in regular drinkers the liver develops a separate metabolic pathway to break down alcohol, with surplus energy turned mainly into heat, not fat, ‘The Sunday Times’ reported.
The researchers have based their findings on an analysis of 19,000 women aged 39 or older with a healthy body weight to describe their drinking habits in a questionnaire.
About 38 per cent drank no alcohol.
Over the next 13 years, the researchers found that all the women tended to gain weight but the non-drinkers gained the most. The women’s overall weight gain decreased as alcohol intake increased.
There was also a difference according to the type of alcohol — red wine was associated with the lowest weight gain; beer and spirits were linked to the highest weight gain, the study found.
The report, published in the ‘Archives of Internal Medicine’ journal, seems to confirm that there is no clear connection between alcohol consumption and weight gain.
