To add to my comment below: In some non-diabetic people, blood sugar levels tend to drop at between 2am to 4am (see the Somogyi effect\Dawn effect). This can cause daily chronic migraines that kick off at around 3am. Eating a small bowl of oatmeal with a touch of ceylon cinnamon and raw honey, right before bed, can alleviate early morning migraines. Keto\low carb diets are not a good idea, because you're essentially forcing your body into finding another way to come up with insulin, neither is a drastic elimination of all glucose\sugars of all kinds. If you've wrecked your gut on years of low carb, you likely know what I'm talking about. We need glucose to have a healthy brain and blood system, and if we don't produce it, our organs will over produce it and that can lead into later life prediabetes... I literally had to add a bit of healthy brown sugar back into my diet after decades of total elimination of it, and it can help but it has to be used medicinally, no more than a couple to 5 teaspoons a day maybe, and I like to follow it with raw unsweetened cranberry juice to try to offset the negative effects. Also, we need some saturated fats, like coconut oil, as this can also nourish the brain, so make sure to not eliminate all saturated fat either, go for some per day, but not too much - I think the rule is to stay under 20g per day, but I stay well under that. There's so much to this discussion, keep up the good work guys!

I have been suffering migraines since I was 20, I am now 49. It has only been in recent years that I learnt the link between food triggers and my migraines. I also began seeing a new doctor who put me on triptans which stop 9 out of 10 of my migraines from progressing. I am gluten, dairy and egg intolerant, suffer very badly from histamine reactions and have chronic hay fever. I also suffer post exercise migraines and if I am in sunlight too long like an afternoon at the beach I will get a migraine. I also get them through lack of sleep. I also suffer anxiety. My doctor also put me on propranolol as a preventative which has eliminated the anxiety but it hasn’t really reduced the frequency of my migraines which are usually one a week. I also supplement with a vitamin b complex, vitamin d, magnesium and a horseradish supplement for my hay fever. Sometimes I take a probiotic too. I am interested in knowing if the absence of an appendix (had mine out when I was 8) has anything to do with my gut biome and food intolerances making my body a perfect storm for migraine attacks?

I've had migraine for 58 years, from the ages of 6 to my current age of 64. I have not found it easy to treat. I've identified food triggers, stress as a trigger, changes in barometric pressure, sharp contrasts in light intensity like flashing lights or bars of light and shade or even walking across black and white tiled floors, hormonal fluctuations... Dairy products are not problematic, gluten is triggering in excess. Nuts, legumes, and bananas, are extremely potent triggers. I've had insomnia since childhood. Before menopause, estradiol gave me control of premenstrual migraine. I'm now taking Ajovy shots once a month and that has more than halved the frequency. Triptans work well, about 90% of the time, for attacks. I take magnesium daily, have been doing so for many years. I've worked my way through the pharmacoepia, CoQ10, vitamin B2, herbal treatments, acupuncture, physical therapy, even botox. I have not found migraine easy to treat! Migraine is a curse in my family. My mother had it, two of my sisters have it, both my son and my daughter have it, several of my cousins have it, a nephew and niece have it...all of us have had it since early childhood. Medication rebound is definitely not a factor in my case. I've lately fortuitously discovered that antihistamines wipe out the vertigo and nausea that had become chronic and can even abort a headache, so I've just started a low-histamine diet as a test.

I had chronic severe prolonged migraines, the worst kind, for around 20 years. So far it looks like I've cured them. *fingers crossed* What I did was I found a probiotic, of all things, that triggered migraines in me. I thought, "This is weird." 3 out of 3 times it triggered migraines. I remember reading on r/SIBO that when on antibiotics if you feed antibiotic resistant bad bacteria it's more likely to die during its reproductive cycle, so you want to eat trigger foods while on antibiotics. I got SIBO and was on antibiotics so I thought, "Why not?" and took this trigger probiotic. Instead of getting a migraine my entire body became severely inflamed for 3 days. It was like I had deeply pissed something off inside of me. Then it went away. When I came off the antibiotic I haven't got a migraine since. (I had been on antibiotics twice before and my migraines went away while on antibiotics then came back, which was also a clue it was something in my gut. Third time's the charm.)

Healthy fats can help heal the brain from concussion, but a S.A.D. high in trans fats and hexane extruded oils could inhibit or harm healing. If you increase healthy fats in someone's menu for at least the 1st 10 days following concussion, you can help the brain to recover and hopefully aid in not setting someone up for lifelong migraines that they don't realize came from the fall they took at 4 years old.

For the last 15 years I get a migraine with aura every month. It lasts about 3-4 days and is always linked to my period. Either just before, during or in the few days after. I’ve tried antidepressants, the pill, progesterone creams that were specifically made for me, beta blockers and other preventatives and botox shots. Nothing stops them. I always get pain in the back of my neck on the right side just before and during the migraines and the pain path travels from that point in my neck up the right side of my head. I get dizziness, nausea, tingling in the right side of my face, ear popping, brain fog and tremors. As it is always linked to my period and follows the same path every time, it doesn’t seem like conventional treatments will work for me. They’re not triggered by food, etc. One thing I’ve noticed is that neurofen seems to help. So does Restavit (antihistamine/sleep aid). I am wondering if it is related to prostaglandins during my period or histamine. There is the possibility that I have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. Does this seem like it may be worth looking into?

Food and Migraine “Neurology in Clinical Practice” “The topic of dietary factors in migraine is difficult. Radical alterations in the diet are rarely justified and seldom effective. A diet favoring both an increase in omega-3 and reduction in omega-6 fatty acid intake is both healthy and may be useful in longitudinal headache reduction (Ramsden et al., 2013). Avoidance of foods containing nitrites (e.g., hot dogs, preserved cold cuts) and prepared foods containing monosodium glutamate can be helpful. Avoiding monosodium glutamate can be difficult because it is a constituent of many canned and prepared foods and is widely used in restaurants, especially in the preparation of Chinese dishes. Ripened cheeses, fermented food items, red wine, chocolate, chicken liver, pork, and many other foods have been suspected of precipitating headaches. These foods mostly contain tyramine, phenylethylamine, and octopamine. An occasional patient identifies an offending foodstuff, but in our experience, dietary precipitation of migraine is uncommon.”

I suffer from Migraines every 7-10 Days. After a couple of years of suffering I finally went to my doctor who never suggested any food eliminations, just prescribed me Sumatriptan which is great but when they changed the vendor from Aurobindo which worked to Dr. Reddy manufacturer which is ba.sically baking soda (theirs dosen't work) so I was talking to my doctor's nurse who asked if I heard of Eating for Your Blood Type. She looked me up and said, "Oh, your'e like me, B+ Blood Type we can't eat chicken/pork/wheat/corn etc. So consequently, I'm trying to combine a both a Migraine & B+ Food do's and don'ts lists. Quite a task.

Wow, correct me if I understood this wrong - all PMS symptoms (water retention, tender breast, migraines, food cravings etc...) are due to too much estrogen & detoxing it?
@susanschroeter72303 жыл бұрын
Correcting it is not that simple though...Low progesterone/adrenal/cortisol imbalances, hypothyroidism/low iodine, high insulin, etc. etc. etc. This is why the integrative approach taken by these doctors, and practitioners like myself is so needed to figure out YOUR unique root causes. Best wishes on your health journey!

I have had migraines almost every single day for over 15 years. My doctors have tried everything to treat them. Sometimes they work for a short time but they always come back. I can go to sleep with a clear head and wake up at 3am with a pounding headache! I would do anything for some relief!

After eliminating my triggers like aspartame I have determined that a change in barometric pressure triggers my migraines. Every time the pressure peaks and begins to drop I get one. I can’t control the weather so don’t know if there is anything I can do.

Why oh why are tasty foods bad for us? Not fair. I suffered from 10 - 12 migraines per month. Now I get 5 -8 migraines per month ( which is still too many) with monthly Ajovy injections and Fiorinal with Codeine when I have the migraine. I find it very, very difficult to give up my favorite foods, so I suffer.

This is all great info but in my opinion it's not as easy as you make it sound. Change to a gluten-, dairy- and sugarfree diet is for most people very difficult, including me. Those are addictve foods, especially wheat, cheese and sugar. In combination with trauma and an eatingdisorder because of that, it is really challenging to combat migraines. However, I did find that i can overcome some attacks with strong, good quality gingerextract and Q10 pills. I take gingercapsules, open them and poor hot water over it, ad some honey, stevia and mineralsalt. Three cups and about 6 Q10 pills of 100 mg, fixes a third to half of my attacks and or makes them less severe. Anther "cure" that worked for me was: nano magnesium (goes straight to your brains), nano platinum (helps connect sevaral brain parts) and an ibuprofen. So a bit of both worlds. But with a migraine, it's worth it. If i take either one, doesn't do the trick.

Thanks to your comment, I searched a bit and learned that a study showed that ginger extract is safer and as efficient as Sumatriptan. Thank you! I totally agree with you regarding the diets, I try keto and intermittent fasting from time to time but carbohydrate are everywhere and I can manage a couple of weeks but, yeah, you cannot live like a monk all your life. I started taking magnesium citrate, vitamin D and Q10 and I do see some improvement. I will add vitamin B, ginger and some probiotic into the mix and see where that leads me. It is great to find people with the same issues willing to share potential solutions as it seems the vast majority of doctors are just useless prescription pushers.

@jsned25026 ай бұрын
Any magnesium is magnesium. Some just have some side effects and some barely get absorbed. Glycinate, absorbs well and doesnt make you poop like Citrate. Citrate makes you poop and is cheaper. The cheapest is Oxide but it doesnt absorb in your body so you dont get much benefit from it. Basically

I have done so much to stop my migraines I get rid of all the bad foods seriously I change my diet seriously I get a ton of exercise seriously I do not drink smoke do drugs seriously I'm the poster child for following correct protocol. Yet I still get migraines I have a prescription for nurtech. I try never ever to take it, there has to be a better way. I think mine is in relationship to my neck and barometric pressures. And I have figured out what foods are my triggers. I stay away from them. If you can offer any other help please do I have more migraines a week then days of the week when I don't I'm a professional dancer singer and it's just horrible especially when I know I have to perform.

I have to tell you that plants can trigger excruciating migraines. Nuts, legumes, bananas, citrus fruits, strawberries, and seeds are common triggers. There are others! Cola drinks are also powerful triggers. Veganism won't prevent migraines. Some people who've never had migraine develop it after becoming vegan.

Abortive therapies have never worked. Preventative therapies have never worked. Homeopathic therapies have never worked. I've lived almost every day of my young life with severe migraine pain. Mine last 24-60 hrs... Of pure desperate pain... And unfortunately I get severely dehydrated, as I can't take any fluids into my body. I can't do it anymore... I get full body neck and head pain and it feels like it's imploding, like all the blood got blocked from moving. I wish I had a Dr who would fight for me. 😢

I started getting migraines in my early 20s (for a while, it was only the visual aura) and now, in my 50s, I am getting them much more often and I can have the headache/nausea after the aura for days. I own a business and cannot just take time off work. I have to suffer through and work with a bad headache. (At least the visual usually only lasts 30 minutes or so.) Imitrex will fix my visual, but it gives me chest pain and I don't feel comfortable taking it with that kind of side effect. Today, I triggered one by just looking outside when it was snowing/bright outside. Migraines are such a frustrating chronic problem! Looking for answers that don't involve medications with side effects. Going to try some magnesium and see if that helps.
