    I have one to add… The water supply

    So I’m getting headaches, I’ve never had headaches except for caffeine headaches, which are (conveniently) only at night. I’m getting headaches after drinking caffeine, during the day, even after detoxing from caffeine. I’ve got filters, the area isn’t known for having bad water, but this started after I moved.

    It took me a while to see the connection, but eventually I decided fuck it, let’s try distilled water. No more headaches, less nausea. What the fuck is in the water…

      Maybe you’ve developed an unusual allergy to some kind of mineral that’s in the water? I know some people can have allergic reactions to hard water which has high levels of calcium and magnesium.

      Might be worth looking into? Distilled water can effect your mineral levels after a long time so it’s not a great long term solution.

      If you’re actually curious about what’s in the water you could try to test it out have it tested.
