Abstract

It is known that drinking of alcoholic beverages has much influence on the control of blood glucose in diabetics. In the present study, intakes of total calories, protein, fat, carbohydrate, and particularly of alcohol were calculated on the basis of daily dietary record which had been written for two years by a patient in the clinic. And, data of the first year was compared with that of the second year not only on the basis of the dietary intake but also the clinical course. One remarkable point which was obtained by this comparison was that alcohol drinking aggravated the control of diabetes and in many cases alcohol intake initiated failure to maintain good dietary restriction. Besides this fact, the every day drinker can not limit his consumption of alcohol by himself. Therefore, the necessity of abstinence in treatment of the diabetic drinker is emphasized.
