Red Wine

In general, several types of alcohol can bring on a headache, or in more advanced cases, a migraine; however, red wine in particular is known to be considered a pesky trigger for migraine attacks.

Red wine contains a preservative called sulfites, which are big migraine triggers, explained Dr. Armand. "Additionally, another added insult of alcohol is the dehydrating effect it has on the body. Dehydration with a mix of alcohol can be a potent trigger of migraine attacks," she said.
