Hi,
Glad to be of help. Indeed, many food can trigger migraine headaches. Diet modification and healthy lifestyle can lead a long way. Do keep us posted if the acupunture works for you. This will also help other members to try complimentary and alternative medicine. Take care and best regards.
Thanks a lot for responding to my question. I found your answer to be pretty interesting. So, it looks like I will change the way I eat completely. I will try acupuncture and I'll keep you posted. Thanks a lot.
In addition to diet modification, complementary and alternative medicine such as biofeedback therapy, self-hypnosis, acupuncture and other relaxation techniques have been proven to help headache sufferers. The National Institute of Health has conducted a lot of studies about these modalities and has showed favorable results. Take care and do keep us posted.
Hi,
How are you? There are indeed a lot of medication for migrane alone and to know what works for you, trial and error is often done. You can avoid food that are known to trigger migraine headaches such as peanuts and peanut butter, caffeine in all products ( tea, coffee, soda), dairy products, beans, avocados, dried meats, canned soups and packet soup mixes, banana, soya products as well as the bean itself, sodium nitrate (used to preserve hot dogs, bacon and cured meats), MSG, cheeses ,red wines, beer, champagne, and chocolate. Majority are those that are highly processed and manufactured food products. Try also to avoid taking over-the-counter pain medications to prevent rebound headaches.Take care and regards.
