Wine sulfite removal drops are everywhere, They promise to eliminate headaches and hangovers with a few drops.

But do they actually work?

These products contain food-grade hydrogen peroxide that chemically converts sulfites into sulfates through oxidation. UC Davis research shows a quarter teaspoon of 3% hydrogen peroxide can neutralize free sulfites in a typical wine bottle.

So yes, they do legitimately reduce sulfites by 30-50% through legitimate.

Only about 1% of people have genuine sulfite sensitivity, mostly those with asthma. For everyone else, hangovers come from alcohol dehydration, acetaldehyde buildup, histamines, tannins, or one of the 72 other additives allowed in American wine.

Outside of the Placebo Effect, the "hangover be gone" claim is misleading marketing for 99% of wine drinkers.

I don't think you need to be paying premium prices for stabilized hydrogen peroxide to solve a problem you probably don't have.

Better hangover prevention: drink water, eat food, moderate alcohol intake and drink Low Intervention Wine.
