Downvoted for having nothing to do with rationality
Having said that, I used to get frequent headaches and I found that eating salty food would kill them. My diet sounds pretty similar to yours and I am also vegetarian. Maybe we lack salt.
It's about rationality because it's about taking a rational approach to a difficult problem.
How much salt did it take you to kill your headaches? I'd be surprised if I were salt-deficient but it's cheap to try.
Two packets of salty crisps. (Do Americans call crisps "chips"? I refer to the thin planar slices of potato, not the thicker cuboid slices of potatoes also know as "fries".)
Are you sure it was the salt and not the potato?
No. And of course I have exactly one data point for all of this. EDIT: As in one person (me) rather than as in one instance of curing headaches. I did reliably cure headaches this way.
We do.
