I never experienced headaches from drinking wines before. Wines give me a relaxing warm feeling that makes my body feel good. Its far from rhum, gin, whiskey, etc. I suggest drinking you drink organic. Its all natural and better for your body.

i drink often. Wine. White wine.
Californian, jacobs creek, anything. As long as it’s wine and 12% volume. I drink about a bottle every other night, is that good?
I dont know if i like the taste, i think i have become immune to the taste.
I just function better, have better conversations, relaxed more and confident when on wine. Wine is such a nice drink.

I’m sorry to hear you and your friends get headaches from red wine.

I would be very interested in seeing the research you found showing a link between sulfites and red wine headaches.

hmmmmm I’m sure glad that you don’t notice headaches from drinking wine. I’m also glad that you know so much about asthmatics and allergies. However, since I do get headaches from wine with added sulfites and know many people who also do, and since I know that all wine as well as many fruits and veggies contain natural sulfites — I do believe that wine without added sulfites really cuts down on side effects for myself and others. That being said; these statements cannot be false. Be careful when you say that something isn’t true because we must recognize that there are many truths out there. At Skrewtips, we strive to find new truths and healthier ways of living. We believe in and research everything we write.

This isn’t true. All wines produce sulfites as a natural by-product of the fermentation process. The natural version is not any different to what is added. That is why it is allowed as an additive to wine. Even organic wines will contain sulfites. You cannot buy a wine that does not contain sulfites.

Many sweet white wines contain more sulfites than red wines, but do not cause headaches. Dried fruits contain sulfites, but no one has claimed “dried fruit headaches”. Sulfites can cause allergic reactions, but only asthmatics get headaches from sulfites.

There still is no research showing why you get a headache from red wine.
