Default RE: alcohol

Here is a thread dealing with alcohol...

http://forum.lowcarber.org/showthre...showthread.php?


From what I have been able to gather there is just a trace of carbs in spirits such as rum, whisky...but as Karen suggests the body will burn alcohol, carbs and then fat so moderation is the key here...
