This must be why my wife's doctors have urged her to avoid virtually all deli 
meats.  She is subject to daily migraines and nitrites are a known trigger, 
probably due to their vasodilation function.

Maybe I should be looking for a vaso-constrictor substance?

My experience lately has been the 
 impossibility of  finding  Deli-meats ,ie Bacon,Ham,etc. 
preserved with NITRATE, which does have some benefical attributes.However, 
NITRITE is what I do find, and  that one  is highly detrimental to 
ones health.
