Now, you find all kinds of helpful information here!
I noticed one of the potential causes from the report,
“Tyramine
Foods and drinks with high levels of the amino acid tyramine can cause your blood pressure to increase and lead to heart palpitations. They include:
aged cheeses cured meats alcoholic beverages dried or overripe fruit”
Over the years I have developed severe food allergies. It took quite a bit of research, but I ultimately narrowed it down to the tyramine connection. Basically, it includes any food that has any form of fermentation. I first noticed it in reactions to a food supplement called MSG. The foods include all of those mentioned in the article and a few others that are related — including processed foods.
The symptoms are many — including heart palpitations. The only treatment option I have found to work is “avoidance.”
There is one positive, though. It sure helps with weight control :-).
cured meats also includes ‘processed meats’ like bologna, salami, pepperoni, hot dogs, sausages, BBQ and pre-cooked hams, chicken or turkey................
