Drinks

• Alcoholic drinks
  
  Any form of liquor including red wine, beer, brandy etc. may trigger headaches. Red wine and beer are among the most common causes of migraines. If your liver is overloaded with toxic substances such as alcohol, caffeine and other toxins, it may lead to abnormal blood flow in the neck and head nerves and gives you a headache.
  
  
• Caffeinated drinks
  
  Caffeinated drinks such as coffee, tea, soda and other soft drinks may also predispose you to headaches. Caffeine is a stimulant found in the above mentioned drinks and it works on the central nervous system and makes you more alert.
