Does alcohol slow down the body's metabolism?

Does alcohol slow down the body's metabolism?I enjoy drinking wine, and I know it has health benefits. But does the consumption of alcohol slow down metabolism and lead to an increase in body fat and/or weight gain?

Answer by melissa
Wine is my drink of choice as well. One 4 oz glass has about 100 calories, so if you have, say 2-3 glasses, you need to factor in 200-300 calories into your diet.

I dont really know about the metabolism effects it may have.
