If you are experiencing headaches from red wine, you will be interested to know that it may be the histamine in the wine instead of an allergy to red wine. Red wine has a higher concentration of histamines than white wine does. Red wine contains 20- to 200-fold more histamine than white wine. Histamine-induced headache is a vascular headache, and nitric oxide probably plays a role in its causation. If you know this is an issue for you, then you can reduce the headache impact on you by taking an anti-histamine before you drink the red wine.
