"Red Wine Headache" can develop within 15 minutes of drinking a single glass of red wine. It doesn't happen after drinking white wine - or any other alcoholic drink.
Possible causes of RWH (yes, it's got its own acronym) could include:
Sulfites, even though less than 1% of people have a sensitivity to them. And, surprisingly, sweet red wines, dried fruit and processed meat contain more sulfites than red wine.
Histamines, which are found in greater quantities in red wine than in white wine. Apparently, if you're sensitive to the histamines in red wine, you should drink a cup of black tea before your first glass. Why? Because black tea contains a substance called Quercetin that can reduce the inflammatory effect of histamines.
Tannins: these are also found in tea, soy and chocolate. But those found in red wine are there mainly because the grape juice has been fermented before the seeds and skins were removed.
Other possible causes of RWH could be
prostaglandins in the wine that sufferers can't metabolize, or a kind of yeast, or a type of bacteria.
In short, nobody knows why RWH occurs.
