David,  I just went through and read all 24 of your posts here and not once did you mention anything about a list of foods to avoid, so I can't help you with that.

I can only speak for myself here & some others who have reported the same thing...Foods do not play a factor in triggerig a CH.   

If you consider alcohol to be a food, avoid that.

i didnt post a link of foods that i must avoid
i saw it once here and copyed it
but i dont remember where i put it

For myself and many others, alcohol is a major trigger, but no foods are.

I have no food triggering issues. But I hear Chocolate,cheese,ice cream(dairy) can cause headaches.But I can say NO BEER!!!!!

Triggers

Nitroglycerin (glyceryl trinitrate) can sometimes induce cluster headaches in sufferers in a manner similar to spontaneous attacks. Ingestion of alcohol or chocolate or banana are recognized as a common trigger of cluster headaches when a person is in cycle or susceptible. Exposure to hydrocarbons (petroleum solvents, perfume) is also recognized as a trigger for cluster headaches. Lahore or 'chinese salt' (monosodium glutamate) is nearly always a trigger of migraines in patients. Sexual frustration, sex or orgasms may trigger cluster headaches in some patients. Some patients have a decreased tolerance to heat, and becoming overheated may act as a trigger which may explain the occurrence after aerobic exercise. Napping causes a headache for some sufferers, while for others lack of sleep triggers them. The role of diet and specific foods in triggering cluster headaches is controversial and not well understood.

I try not to eat cured meats or hot dogs when I'm in cycle.

thanks
yes i know beer is a trigger and i do avoid it when im in a cycle
also dope..  :(

cured meats or meats with Nitrites or Nitrates can trigger me, but I know of no other food triggers.  Aspertame can also be an issue if I drink diet drinks.

I've had trouble with licorice but I really think I've had just as much difficulty when chewing anything that requires vigorous mastication. That's "chewing" for the uninitiated. If I'm in a particular touchy part of a cycle, even gum can kick off a hit. But I don't think it's the product so much as the act of moving my jaw up and down. lance

TMI, dude. ;D

Glad you liked it, Brew!  ::)

Hello,

I tend to stay away from any products that have MSG.
Also anything that over salted makes my bp rise, and i noticed hits came those nights.

P.S. Never scream out HELP like you did, It tends to make me beleive your a victim.
