How serious are you wanting to shed weight?
Alcohol contains around 7 calories per gram so regular or excessive alcohol can significantly hinder your weight loss efforts and is best avoided or reduced.
If you are concerned about alcohol interacting with Garcinia Cambogia (GC) there is no definitive evidence supporting or otherwise. In the United States GC is considered a dietary supplement and is regulated as a food. This means it is not subject to rigorous safety and efficacy testing like a medicine and drug interaction data is limited.
