The point is that if I had been aware of this fact, or, in other words, if there were warning labels on soy products addressing this potential side effect, I would have vigilantly monitored my soy consumption. But here I am now, foolishly suffering from a persistent, dull headache and an inability to focus on working.

The source of my pain
Soy can cause headaches because it contains tyramine, which is "a natural headache trigger" (NPR). Why a natural headache trigger exists in the first place is an important question.

Does this mean that soy is dangerous?

ReplyDeleteNo, I don't think soy is dangerous; apparently study results have been inconclusive. I think I'm just going to avoid the soy products that give me a headache.
ReplyDeleteIs it a film worth watching?
