From Laura Dolson, your Guide to Low Carb Diets
We all know it's important to drink fluids. I have a glass of water by my side at all times, and one of the first things I do when I get up in the morning is brew a pot of tea, which I drink throughout the day. What do you like to drink that won't shoot your blood sugar up? I've got lots of ideas here. Have a great weekend - Laura

Alternatives to Soda
I try to make diet soda an occasional thing, because every so often I come across a study that hints that they aren't too great for us. But, frankly, I'm also one of those people who will drink more water if there's some flavor there - so I've put together some ideas for others who might want some suggestions.

Low-Carb Sports Drink?
I'm sure you've figured out by now how much sugar is commercial sports drinks. Is this necessary? What else is in sports drinks? I take sports drinks apart, look at the ingredients, and then put them back together for low carbers.

Carbs in Coffee Drinks
When did it happen that a plain ole cuppa Joe (zero carbs, zero calories) morphed into a White Chocolate Mocha with whipped cream (58 g carbs, 510 calories for a "medium" 16 oz)? What's really in a latte or cappuccino? Here's how to make the best choices in coffee drinks.

Low-Carb Guide to Alcoholic Beverages
How much carbohydrate is in beer or wine? Will alcohol derail your diet? This guide will help you to figure it all out.
