During an evening drink, a glass of wine can bring relaxation and pleasure, but it can also increase calorie intake. To achieve a balance of mind and body, we can choose some low-calorie drinks to satisfy our cravings.
Firstly, opting for drinks with lower alcohol content is a wise choice. Beverages with lower alcohol content usually contain less sugar and calories, making them less likely to contribute to weight gain compared to highly alcoholic drinks. Low-alcohol versions of beer, red wine, or white wine are good choices, and you can select the one that suits your taste.

In addition to choosing low-calorie drinks, controlling the amount of alcohol is also crucial. Moderation is key! Even if you opt for drinks with lower alcohol content, excessive consumption can still lead to high calorie intake. When enjoying an evening drink, it is recommended that women consume no more than one glass per day (approximately 150 milliliters), and men no more than two glasses per day (approximately 300 milliliters). Keep in mind that "one glass" refers to the standard alcohol beverage serving size to avoid overconsumption.

Furthermore, choosing healthy drinks is also essential for maintaining a good physique. Red wine is a great choice. Polyphenols found in red wine, such as anthocyanins in grape skins, have antioxidant and cardiovascular benefits. Moreover, red wine is believed to promote metabolism, assisting the body in burning calories. Of course, everyone's body and needs are different, so it's essential to make appropriate choices based on personal preferences and health conditions when selecting drinks.
