One often overlooked factor in headaches is the consumption of excitotoxins. Of the most prevelant excitotoxins in our foods and beverages, monsodium glutamate is probably the most common and is very commonly associated with headaches. Avoid foods containing monosodium glutamate (if you can; easier said than done) if you notice a pattern of headaches after eating.
