Red wine affects the chocolates?

Hello,

My 93 -year -old father usually has a glass of red wine (14.5%) a day while eats.His endocrine told me that if it was just a bit, he could do it.

Recently, a relative offered two Ferrero Rocher with sugar chocolates saying that if you can drink wine you can take chocolates.

Does a glass of red wine affect your glycemia during the meal that a pair of sugar chocolates as dessert?

I would appreciate your help.

Greetings,
Guillem

My father has type 2 diabetes and is punched insulin once a day.In addition, take eukreas twice a day.Its sugar level is around 125 and 16 u are injected.

The Bombón will raise blood glucose.The red wine cup is not.

But the truth is if he is 93 years old to take what he wants !!!
