Do I have to give up alcohol to lose weight? I currently drink about three glasses of wine a day.
Yes you should quit if you want to have a healthy diet. If you can't stop drinking, then that's the time that you should seek addiction alcoholism treatment .
Alcohol is food and can be part of a healthful diet. Those who consume it daily in moderation tend to have better health and live longer than those who abstain.
