Can food nausea cause a headache?

Answer by  jen37 (1135)

Yes, specific foods can cause headaches, though it is often a personal reaction to the food. If you are allergic to the food, a headache may be a symptom, or one of several symptoms. Pay attention to the foods you are eating the day of the headaches, try dropping specific foods if you are suspicious.

Absolutely. Anything off about food or an upset stomach can cause headaches. The stomach and the brain are directly linked by the vagal nerve, and when aggravated, this nerve can do many unpleasant things, even causing black outs when extremely agitated.
