Drinking alcohol regularly 'significantly protects against diabetes'Drinking alcohol most days a week can significantly protect against developing diabetes, research has shown.A study of more than 70,000 men and women found consuming alcohol three or four days a week was associated with a reduced risk of 27% in men and 32% in women, compared with abstaining.Wine was found to have a bigger effect than beer, probably because it contains chemical compounds that improve blood sugar balance, scientists said.But there was a warning to women to stay clear of the gin bottle. A daily tipple of "mothers' ruin" or other spirits increased the diabetes risk to women by 83%.
