Red Wine Headaches

Posted by admin | Posted in | Posted on 10:49 PM

Sometimes I have someone who does not like red wine and white wine, because he sulfites in red wine dear you have a headache - so-called  red wine headache (CEP). The label  WARNING Contains sulfites  seems to support its allegations. The question is whether the sulfites in red wine causes headaches real?

Sulfites used as a natural preservative in wine. The reason is that the  natural  conservation of sulfur is a natural byproduct of fermentation. Sulphite is added to the store often and potassium metabisulfite. The Conservatives have said, so the age of wine for many years, the vinegar, if not soon. Organic wines have this problem of aging.
While red wine contains sulfites registered, including  no sulfites added. The same is true for all white wines - white wines have more of sulfite reducing average. All wines contain 40-80 mg / liter sulfites average. Organic wines fewer sulfites, but to them. It is not wine without sulfites. No matter what country the wine originates. The United States and warnings list sulfite reducing Australia labels But Europeans are not required to do so. European wines still contain the same amount of sulfur.

You also used in eggs, so everyone with a headache from a bag dried apricots. Syrup typically contains more than sulfite reducing wine. The human body also produces sulfur of normal biochemical processes, such as 1000 mg per day.
Some studies have shown that some individuals may have severe reactions to sulfites. A little less than 1% of the population lacking an enzyme to reduce sulfite. In contrast, peanut allergy affects about 4% of the population.

For these people may not be able to break sulfur is a problem that threatens the lives - much more severe headaches.
In general, symptoms include difficulty breathing at various levels, especially in asthmatics for steroids. Rash, itching or symptoms like nausea is rare, but the headaches are not usually a symptom of the reaction of sulfur. Despite the severity of some reactions, the FDA reported 19 deaths since 1990 sulphite. None of these deaths were standing on the red wine in its context.

Australian researchers studied a group of people who are very sensitive to sulphites. The researchers gave these people a drink with 300 mg / liter sulfites, much more important than quantity in red wine. Only 4 of 24 subjects showed asthmatic reaction. None of the subjects responded negatively to beverages and 100 mg / liter. The study published in Chest (2001 Oct, 56 (10) :763-9), showing that  reaction only a small number of wine sensitive asthmatic patients, a challenge for a single dose of sulfur in laboratory conditions wine. This may mean that the role of sulfur [sic] and / or wine was too trigger asthmatic reactions.
This does not yet meet the issue of rainwater. This is not common in magazines with links to medical research sulfites headaches. This does not mean that red wine causes headaches for some people. Studies show that red wine is not a headache for many reasons, but the authors sulphites.

Most previous studies of the drug may believe that prostaglandins, hormone-like substances in the manufacture of certain types of pain and inflammation and provide CEP debt. Herbert Kaufman, MD, and Dwight Starr, MD MT. Zion Hospital and Medical Center has been a significant reduction of headaches in people prone to show rain, and given the prostaglandin inhibitors.

If you have any doubts, try to eat a bag of oranges, dried apricots. Widely used sulfur. If it is very rare or frequent headaches, respiratory diseases, it is sensitive to sulphites. The best advice is to keep a record of the red to try.
Note that the wines have a headache, and wines that have no influence. In the future, drinking red wine, you do not have headaches.

One last remark puzzles that give you more wine last night in a  headache . It can be avoided by the consumption so much!
