| I have a glass of red wine at bedtime a few times a week (more for HDL than blood sugar). I usually have a glass of cabernet sauvignon, as I like it better than merlot. I'm don't care for the taste of wine in general, but I have seen good results in raising my HDL. I see no difference in my blood sugars though.
