Possibly also depends on your body in other ways. I have yet to find an artificial sweetener that doesn’t give me headaches. Multiple times I had a headache for seemingly no reason and found out something I consumed a few hours earlier had artificial sweeteners. Same goes for too much licorice or stevia.
Yeah some people are sensitive to Phenylalanine without having Phenylketonuria, relatively uncommon. As with all things natural or not you should listen to what your body tells you there is no one reaction to anything. Eggs and dairy can also be high in this amino acid.
I have no problem at all with either eggs or dairy, so it must be something else. I suspect it’s my brain registering sweetness and telling the respective glands to prepare for an influx of sugars which then fail to appear, leading to those headaches.
