Question

I've never really enjoyed the taste of eggs and I've finnaly figured out why. I never noticed but for some reason when I eat eggs I get a bad headache. Does this happen to anyone else? and why would this be possible?

Answer 1

I don't have that problem because I love eggs! I did find this though...

Triggers for migraines vary from individual to individual. Below is a list of common migraine triggers:

Dietary Triggers
Clinical research from The National Headache Foundation suggests that a large percentage of all migraines are directly linked to food allergies or to reactions caused by food additives, particularly certain preservatives and colorings, caffeine, and chocolate. Many sufferers are allergic to more that one food, and surprisingly the offending allergies are often among the sufferer’s favorite foods. The most common offenders are cow’s milk, eggs, wheat, cheese, and rye, along with benzoic acid (a preservative) and tartrazine (a popular food dye). Other allergens may be hidden in complex foods. For example, two common allergens, corn and brewers yeast, hide in many recipes and even in some vitamin pills. A well-kept headache diary plays an important role in discovering if dietary allergies may be playing a part in your pain.
