Recent studies tell us that moderate wine consumption of any wine, may help with weight loss, because the wine has a small amount of calories, which are used instead of the calories from food, which are usually a lot more.

Drinking wine (red or white) probably wouldn't help achieve a loss of weight. However, consumed in moderation, it should not make losing weight any more difficult.

Alcohol contains calories, but drinking alcohol in moderation doesn't lead to weight gain, according to extensive medical research, and some studies report a small reduction in weight for women who drink.

The reason that alcohol doesn't necessarily increase weight is unclear, but research suggests that alcohol energy is not efficiently used. Alcohol also appears to increase metabolic rate significantly, thus causing more calories to be burned rather than stored in the body as fat. Other research has found that the consumption of sugar decreases as the consumption of alcohol increases.

Whatever the reasons, the consumption of alcohol is not associated with weight gain and is sometimes associated with weight loss in women. The medical evidence of this is based on a large number of studies of thousands of people around the world. Some of these studies are very large; one involved nearly 80,000 and another included 140,000 subjects.
