Sauvignon Blanc Wine (1 Serving 5 Fl Oz)

Choose a smaller pour (such as 3–4 oz) and sip slowly; avoid refills or combining wine with sweet mixers.

Have the wine with a balanced meal containing protein, healthy fat, and fiber, such as salmon or eggs with a leafy-green salad, avocado, and olive oil, rather than drinking it on an empty stomach.

If you want a snack with wine, choose options such as plain Greek yogurt, nuts, seeds, cheese, hummus with non-starchy vegetables, or berries in a modest portion.

Prefer a dry, unflavored Sauvignon Blanc and check the label or producer information for residual sugar; avoid late-harvest, sweetened, or fruit-flavored versions.

Avoid pairing wine with high-sugar or refined-starch foods, including desserts, white bread, crackers, chips, and sweet sauces.

Check your glucose before drinking and again over the following few hours to identify your personal response; alcohol can also cause delayed lows, especially if you use glucose-lowering medication.
