Pinot Gris (Grigio) Wine (1 Serving 5 Fl Oz)

Avoid drinking Pinot Gris on an empty stomach; have it with a balanced meal or snack containing protein, fat, and fiber, such as plain Greek yogurt with almonds or eggs with non-starchy vegetables.

Limit the amount and pace: sip slowly, alternate each serving with water, and avoid multiple drinks in one sitting.

Choose a dry, lower-sugar Pinot Gris and avoid adding juice, soda, or sweet mixers.

If you use insulin or glucose-lowering medication, discuss alcohol-specific dose and timing guidance with your clinician; alcohol can delay low glucose for several hours, including overnight.

Check your glucose before drinking, during longer occasions, and before bed; keep a fast-acting carbohydrate source available in case symptoms develop.

Seek urgent medical help for severe confusion, fainting, seizures, inability to swallow, or a low glucose level that does not improve with treatment.
