Migraines & Allergies

Expert replies
by mundasingh123 » Thu Jul 28, 2011 6:45 am
Although migraine headaches are believed to be caused by food allergies, putting patients on diets that
eliminate those foods to which the patients have been demonstrated to have allergic migraine reactions
frequently does not stop headaches. Obviously, some other cause of migraine headaches besides food allergies
much exist.
Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the conclusion above?
(A) Many common foods elicit an allergic response only after several days, making it very difficult to observe
links between specific foods patients eat and headaches they develop.
(B) Food allergies affect many people who never develop the symptom of migraine headaches.
(C) Many patients report that the foods that cause them migraine headaches are among the foods that they
most enjoy eating.
(D) Very few patients have allergic migraine reactions as children live migraine-free adult lives once they have
eliminated from their diets foods to which they have been demonstrated to be allergic.
(E) Very rarely do food allergies cause patients to suffer a symptom more severe than that of migraine


How do U interpret (D) with respect to the Conclusion ?
I want unbiased opinions. Key shall not be provided until there are sufficient no. of responses

IMO A

As such, D actually strengthens the argument: it says that eliminating the allergenic foods from the diet doesn't work. Also dont you think some words are missing in D. It sounds weird.

The more you suffer before the test, the less you will do so in the test! :)
