Guest guest Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 I just ate some artichoke hearts, plain....nothing on them at all.....and now I have a headache! I haven't had anything else that would give me a headache....so I am wondering if it is possible I have a sensitivity to them. Anyone else experience this?

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Sharon, you can be allergic (or intolerant) to ANY food. Other foods in the same food family as artichokes are sunflower seeds and romaine lettuce. It might be worth while to notice your reaction to those, as well. HTH!
