Glutamate is a neuro-excito-toxin... it stimulates the NMDA receptors in your brain and spinal cord, which create pain signals. Another name for this is MSG a common food additive.
This might be the culprit if you have a systemic effect.
Also the copper may be absorbed, and if your zinc is low then you would have an improper copper/zinc ratio.
I don't know about the nausea. But I do know that if you use a product with this one that is a conditioner, that would drive the hair product deeper into the scalp and perhaps into the brain. Studies have shown that lindane for head lice can cause brain damage when used on the scalp and this is accelerated if conditioners are used with or before it. The process is like the transdermal gels used to deliver drugs locally thru the skin.
Those other ingredients --some sound like surfactants, which could do the same thing.
So yes it is possible that this product could be irritating to some people, especially those with nerve damage already.
