Sometimes it’s hard to figure out if you have a food allergy, since it can show up so many
different ways. Your symptoms could be caused by many other problems. You may have
rashes, hives, joint pains mimicking arthritis, headaches, irritability, or depression. The
most common food allergies are to milk, eggs, seafood, wheat, nuts, seeds, chocolate,
oranges, and tomatoes. Many of these allergies will not develop if these foods are not fed
to an infant until her or his intestines mature at around seven months. Breast milk also
tends to be protective. Migraines can be set off by foods containing tyramine,
phenathylamine, monosodium glutamate, or sodium nitrate. Common foods which
contain these are chocolate, aged cheese, sour cream, red wine, pickled herring, chicken
livers, avocados, ripe bananas, cured meats, many Oriental and prepared foods. Some
people have been successful in treating their migraines with supplements of B-vitamins,
particularly B6 and niacin. Children who are hyperactive may benefit from ¡eliminating
food additives, especially colorings, and foods high in salicylates from their diets. A few
of these are almonds, green peppers, peaches, tea, grapes. This is the diet made popular
by Benjarmin Feingold, who has written the book Why your Child is Hyperactive. Other
researchers have had mixed results when testing whether the diet is effective.
