Whether you choose a glass of wine in the company of friends or you prefer to have sophisticated cocktails, alcohol is the same: the enemy of a slim figure. Experts warned that some drinks are as high in calories as a fast-food meal!
Alcoholic beverages consumed alone or in cocktails, are as fattening as fast food, as experts point out, that some of them can compete successfully with calorie bombs, such as hamburgers or cookies.
If you are organizing a special evening with your partner on Valentine’s Day, do not overdo bacchic licorice! Why? For alcohol increase the weight in any form it comes, because it metabolizes quickly and tends to settle. Maybe less if consumed after a meal. It will bring excess calories and can only contribute to malnutrition.
Liqueur, it’s full of calories
It might be more tasteful than the rest of the alcohol beverages, but this is the result of high sugar content. Liqueur contains very much sugar and calories.For example, a creamy
whiskey liqueur has 350 kcal per 100ml, and coffee liqueur has 348 kcal.
Cocktails or simple drinks with ice? Well, cocktails can sometimes be fatal for the figure. For example, Chocolate Martini, which contains a mixture of a spirit (vodka, rum or brandy), cocoa cream, chocolate syrup and liqueur has 438 kcal per 100 ml, almost as a ”hamburger”!
So if you’d like to lose weight stay away from alcohol as much as possible. You’d better have a cookie or a big mac than a glass of cocktail, for example.
