They left out how the are produced in these cases -histamines which are a problem for people intolerant of histamines. I recently figured this out after listening to lectures at the IACFSME conference and I took an antihistamine instead of a migraine pill and aborted the migraine. Chemical smells can cause the body to produce histamines.Not sure where to park this:

I have very recently realised that it is histamine that has been affecting me for years. I have food intolerances and worked out a diet for myself which I now realise is low histamine, and the foods that upset me most are high histamine.They left out how the are produced in these cases -histamines which are a problem for people intolerant of histamines.

That's a shame @mermaid, the amount of fat you have to eat is pretty bonkers. I hope you can find some other relief, I took pizotifen as migraine prophylaxis for many years with quite a lot of success. Interestingly it also has anti-histamine properties, just to bring the discussion full circle back to @L Y's comment. And of course my take on the keto diet is inherently low histamine, which is also no doubt helping.
Thanks @ryan31337 and @mermaid - I think I'm going to start by making a note of what I eat particularly in the evenings and see if I can find any common factors linking poor night and early headaches with food.. I need to read up on this when my brain is a bit clearer - really foggy at the moment...
