Use the art at your own risk.

I'm really surprised this product doesn't come with a warning that people should use it at their own risk as a CYA claim sees how allergic reactions can become serious and life threatening events.Why the histamine intolerance and possible mast cell activation syndrome or mastocytosis In short, I can't eat anything high in histamine (aged or fermented food or drink, slow-cooked food, etc.) without producing a severe allergic reaction.My history with wine includes hot flashes on my neck and face that feel like sunburn feel, feel hot, tiredness, ge hazy fog/confusion etc. I took claims about this product at face value to enjoy a glass of wine on Thanksgiving. To be sure (air quotes provided) that it works, I even took my standard 6 Benadryl color-free BEFORE drinking the wine (and while the histamine filter supposedly lasted longer than the recommended five minutes, as on stated on the package) "I had an epilation pen ready just in case. You are right if you suspect something went wrong. Even 3/4 of the wine didn't come out and I could feel the redness spreading from my collarbones to my hairline.” Instant fatigue Runny nose Feeling of stuffy nose It took two more doses of Benadryl (my allergist approved dose of 6 capsules without dyes) spaced 30 minutes apart before I felt the peak of the reaction and Benadryl started to work. Luckily I didn't have to use my epi pen or go to the ER. So it's 18 Benadryl on the TOP of the histamine filter and I STILL had a severe reaction to the product that has NO medical disclaimer on the packaging that I could find. If so, I won't tell you what to do, but I will tell you that I stay away from those histamine filters as much as possible and will issue a refund.

Pros
  • WILL NOT ALTER THE TASTE OF WINE: These wine filters do not affect the taste, aroma or color of the wine, you can enjoy your glass without suffering unpleasant side effects and you don't have to buy expensive so-called "organic wines".
Cons
  • flimsy
