Are you allergic to alcohol? Probably not. As this article explains, however, you may be allergic to certain ingredients, such as wheat, yeast , or sulfites, that are commonly found in alcoholic beverages. Identify the allergen to which you react and you should be able to choose drinks that won't cause reactions. If you're seeking confirmation that you have an alcohol allergy, you won't find it on this page, but you will find useful facts that may make your Friday nights a little more pleasant.
I found this article to be very interesting and educational. Since a true alcohol allergy is rare, the article highlighted other ingredients in wine or beer that have the possibility to cause allergic reactions. This article is very informative and easy to read.
