Does drinking Red Wine or Champagne cause sneezing, flush, headache, diarrhea, skin itch, or shortness of breath?

Unless I drink too much red wine as with anything else I would get a headache.

Good point, I'll qualify the question asking if drinking a glass or two of wine/champagne.

Yes I do feel a bit flushed with drinking wine, red or white, and some spirits.

Some one says it is because it increases the blood pressure. But I have been like this since I began drinking, and there is nothing wrong with my blood pressure.

I think it is because alcohol seems to have a warming effect, by opening up the pores in your face that it makes you feel warm and flushed. I might be wrong, and yes it does not feel or look nice thinking I have a red face, it seems way worse when I am tired.

Forgot to add, that warm feeling would happen just after one glass of wine.

In the morning -- Yes,

During -- I sometimes get flush drinking wine, but I chalk that up to "the experience"

Almost all of my friends and family have headaches from red wine the next day...

I was told that drinking lower end wine/chamapgne can caus eheadaches as a reaction to the tannins in the grapes etc.

However, I do not have this problem.

I don't get a headache from red wine or champagne. I sometimes get one from white wine. However, I don't normally drink white wine, probably for that reason.

Some wines contain casein, the milk protein. I have reacted to red wine before because of casein.

Red wine affects me, but I was told it is the histamines in it. Sometimes wine and champers do it to me too. I've nerver had diarrhoea from it tho.

I have a solution that works for me - If I am going out and know I'll be drinking wines, I take an antihistamine - works brilliantly. Sadly, it does not help prevent hangovers if you overconsume :)

Champagne makes me dizzy, but I tend to overdo it when it's decent stuff. Decent reds don't give me a headache.

I agree - partake too much and the next day get the results. During the drinking though, after the first glass of a nice red (white is too often aged in Oak and I just don't prefer Oak flavor in my wine) I sometimes feel the flush feeling (almost like an instant effect), but I always thought that was due to cutting out all other alcohol (I miss ice cold beer, and 7&7's....). Sulfites are very prevalent in reds.....

As far as the lower end - I would recommend almost anything by Rosemount Estates.... I have never had symptoms while enjoying a glass of theirs....

Yes, and it makes me barf (and I'm talking maybe 1-2 glasses, so it's not like I get drunk). I can drink anything else with no problems, but wine just doesn't agree with me at all.

HEY GUYS LEST WE NOT FORGET GRAPES ALL GRAPES ARE DUSTED ,TO CONTROL MILDEW

WITH SULFER!!!!! Sulfer is a well known allergen. It makes no difference how much you wash grapes with soap or water or any type of produce wash the sulfer is still there in an amount that can cause an reaction.

I have been unable to use any wine in cooking because of an allergic reaction. This also goes fo any grape related fruit drink!!! Watch your kids! Reactions can be anything. dizziness shortness of breath, hives itchy skin diarrhea etc... I can only eat those grapes that I or my family members grow since we dont use sulfur. There is hope .... I have found good results using a soak/ water bath of 50/50 white vinegar and water to clean any store bought grapes. Keep soaking than rinse till the water bath comes clean..

I finally gave up "trying" to drink wine last month. At first I would get D the next day every time I drank a glass. Then that stopped and I thought it was just the brand. duh. I read that it's good for the heart so I would have a glass a 1-3 times a week for my blood. I have a history of DVT. It was like Russian roulette! Sometims it wouldn't bother me and sometimes I'd get a hurendous migraine that lasted 2 days, the next day after drinking it. I tried changing brands and it would be ok for awhile then, the migraines would start. I finally gave up and stopped drinking it. However, port, especially Sandman's didn't bother me. Why would that be? I believe it's imported from Spain.

:huh:

      Diagnosed celiac for 1-2 months ago and everything makes me bloated.

      By Beverage · Posted

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
