Hello PlateletGal,

Enjoy your massage!!!!

I use Longevity Science, Magna-calm If you can't find it you can order it from
vitacost.com  I buy all my supplements from them I find they have the best price
I'm next for the MASSAGE !!

[PlateletGal]

Wow.. thank you for your response. I do most of the things you had suggested, but I'm wondering now if the reason for the increase in headaches is due to the fact that I ran out of my powered magnesium ? I used to purchase it at a health food store, but they discontinued the product and so I was searching around to get it elsewhere (no luck so far).

I will print out your response and make sure that I'm doing everything to a "T". Thank you again for your input. I think my headaches are mostly due to hormonal changes, weather changes and detoxing (I'm on a pathogen killing treatment).

Also, I WANT ANOTHER MASSAGE !!!!!!!   ; ^)

Yes liquid magnesium or powder form mixed with water will help quite quickly.
I didn't know about the B6 though.....interesting.

Do you give yourself B6 shots Deep??

Most important is to avoid all excitotoxins.
After all, research indicates that this is the central
cause of the problem and explains why some
anti-seizure medications work. This means avoid
all MSG, aspartame, hydrolyzed protein, isolated
protein, protein drinks, soy products and soy
proteins, Portabella mushrooms, sodium or calcium
caseinate, stock, broth and natural flavoring. All of
these are major triggers for migraine.
• Increase your magnesium intake significantly.
It takes a long time for oral magnesium to
raise depleted brain levels to normal, as much
as 6 months. Yet, relief can begin within hours.
Vegetables are high in magnesium, so increase
your vegetable intake. To assure maximum intake,
I would suggest taking magnesium citrate or
citrate/malate, two capsules three times a day
between meals. If you develop diarrhea, start with
two capsules a day and slowly over a week’s time
increase the dose.
• I have found a close relation between
migraine headaches and reactive hypoglycemia.
Low blood sugar depletes magnesium and increases
brain excitotoxin levels (glutamate). Avoid all sugarespecially
soft drinks. Drink purified water. You can
empty a capsule of magnesium into your water.
Including beans with your meals slows carbohydrate
absorption. Also, avoid all potatoes except sweet
potatoes. Irish potatoes are strongly hypoglycemic.
• Riboflavin
Take 500 mg. three times a day to significantly
reduce migraine attacks, by protecting against
excitotoxicity.
• Anti-inflammatory flavonoids are important.
That’s because inflammation of the involved blood
vessels plays a major role in the disorder. The best
are curcumin, quercetin, hesperidin, feverfew and
nettle. All should be taken with meals.
• Free radicals also play a role and are closely
connected to inflammation and excitotoxicity.
Increase your intake of natural vitamin E
(Unique-E 800 IU a day), magnesium ascorbate
(1,000 mg. twice a day between meals) and take a
multivitamin/mineral supplement daily. White tea
(decaffeinated) will also reduce inflammation, calm
nerves and it is a powerful antioxidant
• DHA component of fish oils also reduce
inflammation and reduce migraine attacks.
Take 200 mg. twice a day. You can mix the
quercetin and curcumin with the oil to increase
absorption. Keep the DHA in the refrigerator.
If you follow this program to the letter, you
will either completely relieve your migraine or
dramatically reduce the severity. I have had great
success, even in the most resistant cases. The drugs
used to treat migraine are often very dangerous and
can increase the risk of a stroke or heart attack.
