Pasta and milk are root cause of ill health for millions

'Half of Britons suffer headaches due to food intolerance' http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/liv...n_page_id=1798 Thanks Anne! More on gluten and headache in The Gluten File: Migraine/Headache |
Yeah, isn't that great? :) I wonder where this study is that is being published today?

Yup...but multiple causes for headaches can mask results :( My dd had food induced migraines, classic migraines, and sinus headaches caused by chronic infection (her adenoids were blocking the drainage in the back of the throat) Getting treatment was a nightmare! (just getting the medical community to take a young child with headaches seriously was a nightmare!)
I suspect milk was the main reason for her lingering pain...we removed it in September, and she no longer has the reflux we'd lumped with migraines. I was able to reduce her migraine meds soon after. Now...as soon as she's off antibiotics, she'll be down to 1/4 of the original dosage...and hopefully med free by summer (fingers crossed!) Thanks for the study info :) |
My sister has migraines and tried various food changes but didn't stick with them. :( She didn't take out gluten (no matter how many times I told her that she could be gluten intolerant because I am).

My headaches have steadily gotten worse over the last year and 1/2. Then in December, I was put back on depression/anxiety meds, which I had not been on for 5 yrs. A chemical imbalance again. My sister asked me if it is possible that I am getting slowly glutened in some way and I could not think of anything, until now! At work, we have 2 women who are constantly eating--cookies, bagels, crackers, pastries, etc. I have caught one of them at my desk spreading her crumbs around and I have reminded them again and again. A week or so ago, I picked up my invoices from the oticians lab and they were covered with crumbs, and yes, I did about raise the roof and I nearly threw all of their jumk food in the trash. I never deny others food, yet I do request that they stay out of my work areas with the food. I wonder if I am being slowly glutened in the office. When I first moved to this island, my headaches went away. Kev said it's because the salt air is good for me. Slowly they came back and now I have to wonder!
