Please, I have been on every elimination diet there is, gluten included. I had to be on these drugs called MAO Inhibitors (some very old antidepressants that have diet restrictions that are extremely restricted because certain foods react very badly to them, as in to cause a hypertensive crisis and death). That MAOI diet eliminated everything from chocolate, to cheese, nuts, processed meats and foods. The list of foods to avoid is daunting. It was also called a “tyramine free” diet. From my understanding tyramine is also produced when foods break down so leftovers were out of the question. I followed this extremely strict diet for several years and it did not make any difference in my migraines except to make me miserable. Have you been on a restrictive diet like this? I lost 100 lbs but still had the headaches. Please do not tell me it’s my diet.
