most excellent article and interview with Maureen Cavanaugh on These Days.
have a rare condition myself, introcranial hypotension, caused by chronic cerebrospinal fluid leak in conjunction with ehlers-danlos syndrome. i found that eating sorbitol (also a sugar, found in prunes for example) reverses the osmotic pressure in the blood brain barrier (arachnoid of the meninges) thus positively affecting the introcranial hypotension and thereby reducing pain (headache).
