DOCTOR’S NOTE

Adults can exceed their recommended daily limit of sugar by drinking just two glasses of wine, experts have warned.

Drinks can also be packed with calories and in some cases a couple of glasses of wine can contain more calories than a burger.

The Alcohol Health Alliance UK (AHA) said that product labelling on alcoholic drinks was “woefully inadequate” as it published new analysis on popular wines. It reported that just two mediumsized glasses of the most calorific wines analysed contain more calories than you find in a McDonald’s hamburger.
