[quote=Anonymous]In answer to the person who asked earlier about the biological mechanism - alcohol impacts estrogen metabolism and aromatase receptors, so it can dial up the perimenopause symptoms like flushing and sleep impacts. Its why its also a risk factor for breast cancer. I think some of what may be additionally going on if you're mostly only having wine with restaurant or other special meals is that they can be pretty high in sodium and you may be going to sleep a bit dehydrated. Food, especially high water content and high fiber food, eaten before or with alcohol will reduce alcohol absorption. So, you could try hydrating before and after and waiting to sip the wine until food's been served. (In the food and beverage industry and also in peri)[/quote]
