Subject I found a direct causal source for my recurring PTSD symptoms. Maybe this info will help you too.

Original Message The source is LaVictoria red taco sauce in mild or medium and LaVictoria Supreme salsa medium. If I put any of these products on my food in an amount greater than about a tablespoon for the entire meal, a couple hours later I will feel a strong reliving of a very traumatic event that happened to me 14 years ago. It will feel like I am right in the middle of it again and it will last for about 6-8 hours straight. It took me a while to think of these food products as being a possible cause, because I have eaten them quite regularly almost my entire life and they never caused me any issues before my traumatic event happened, so I incorrectly assumed that meant they must not be the cause now.

I have no idea what is in those products causing the dynamic. I used to think that maybe I actually had a nightshade sensitivity, but further personal testing has proven that's not the case. I can eat large amounts of other similar high nightshade foods like Tapatio hot sauce, Huy Fong brand Sriracha, Tostitos medium salsa, or just items with lots of tomato like spaghetti sauce and I will be just fine.

I tried to narrow the specific culprit within those LaVictoria foods further but had no luck. I tried eating other foods (like spaghetti sauce for instance) that had one or more of the same listed ingredients and had no issues. The only thing I can think of is that the LaVictoria ingredient lists show one of their ingredients as "spices". There's no way of knowing what those proprietary spices actually are or where they are sourced from so I have pretty much reached the end of what I can research or isolate.

I finalized my verification testing by doing some simple home tests. For instance, I would make a taco wrap and put LaVictoria taco sauce on it and later that night I would feel terrible emotional anguish again and intense reliving of my traumatic event from the past. I couldn't stop thinking about it or feeling it at 100% level even if I wanted to turn my mind to something else. The next day I would use all the same leftover ingredients to make another taco wrap and the only thing I would change is I would use Tapatio hot sauce instead of LaVictoria. I would have zero issues. I can now literally make my PTSD emotional pain appear on demand by eating a dose greater than about a tablespoon of one of those LaVictoria products as part of a meal.

Before making this food based connection, I thought my PTSD staying the same over time (even after I healed many aspects of my emotional pain along the way) might be partially the result of an unknown nutritional deficiency. I began purchasing and testing each and every vitamin and mineral there is, and I took them in different amounts either in isolation or in synergistic or antagonistic pairings with other vitamins and minerals to see if anything made a difference. Over time I slowly healed every single physical issue I have ever had (which was amazing), but my sporadic but strong PTSD emotional flashbacks never changed one bit throughout that entire process. Now it is completely gone as long as I continue to avoid those 3 known LaVictoria branded food triggers.

If anyone on GLP is dealing with PTSD and you eat those LaVictoria products, try stopping them for a while to see if it helps with your PTSD flashbacks or strong feelings of reliving the event as if it is happening right in front of you all over again. Maybe this info will help you too.
