Sulfites are chemicals that are found naturally in and added into many of the foods we eat. Although only about one in one hundred people have a sulfite deficiency, it is possible that people who have migraines have this condition ("What Is Sulfite Sensitivity?"). If these researchers in the article found women with migraines consumed more sodium, it is possible they could be more sensitive to sodium (Evans, E Whitney, et al.). In order to test this, participants would need to take part in the elimination diet. This would involve removing sodium from the participants diet and then bring sodium back into their diets (Finocchi, Cinzia, and Sivori).
