Berries - tic trigger?

[flower]

Are berries (raspberries, blackberries, strawberries) a tic trigger? I bought a blender and made smoothies over the weekend, having LOTS of berries and today, my vocal tics were totally out of control!! The only thing different from the norm that I can think of is the fruit smoothies...

Some people have salicylate sensitivity and many berries are high in these.

So if you are salicylate sensitive, this may explain your increased tics with elevated berry consumption

Thank you very much, Chemar. I will stop having berries and see if there will be changes in tics... Sad because i love berries..
