Hi Tom,
Headache resolution on a gluten-free diet has repeatedly been documented.
Here are 11 peer reviewed research and case reports (not speculative) of
headache in association with celiac disease. Unfortunately, one is in
Italian and another in Spanish. However, 9 are in English.
Headaches and their resolution on a G-F diet have also been documented in
other peer reviewed publications, but I can't find a more complete list just
now.
Best Wishes,
Ron
