My daughter's symptoms have always been made significantly worse by cinnamon, turmeric and ginger. Increased headache is one of the main symptoms she'd get with these. I'd been assuming that it had to do with the fact that they all have some blood thinning and blood pressure lowering effect. She already has low bp and orthostatic intolerance/POTS. Anything that would thin her blood would make POTS worse and increase headache. Or maybe it's more complex as some of you cleverer people have outlined above.
