Alternative Remedies

Dr Gerson originally formulated his diet to treat migraines, but I think
going on that regime to kill a headache would be a bit overkill.
You might want to read his book and see what elements to avoid in your diet,
or contact the Gerson institute and see what they say.

THe following is NOT SPAM! ( but siple fact). Migraines are caused
by
Vaso Constriction which is commonly caused by an overindulgence in
COFFEE.
1.5 cups n more often than 6 hrs is MAXUMUM as it contains 350mg of
caffeine
The MAXIMUM that is considered tolerable. TEA is a better and
healthier choice. even > BLACK tea which has 10 times the caffeine
of UN-roasted varieties that have only 10 mg.
per cup. the STEEP curve of Cofee is a major problem and most
doctors don't even KNOW > the exact reason. SO...just get your acts
together when it comes to coffee..Dr B-0b1 Ph.D

MIGRAINES are caused by Vaso-constriction in the Blood supply of the
brain.
The most COMMON cause (99%) is excess COFFEE. Anything over 1.5 cups

at ANY TIME can and may cause Vaso-constriction which leads to
Migrains.
I recommend GREEN Tea...as one would drown in it before enough
Caffeine
would be ingested to cause a Migrain to occur. (Other chemicals may
apply, but
only you would know what you ingest...do some research?? ) B-0b1

Are you 100% sure they are migraines? What are the symptoms?

Feverfew, the herb, in capsules, can abort the headaches. Use if
sparingly, because it lowers blood pressure.

Hotpacks to the back of the head and neck, along with some
aspiring, can help.

Not exactly "alternative", but a phenobarbital and antihitamine
combination can flat knock you out until it's ovre. Usefulk
especiallly if the headaghes have an allergic cause.

Have you done the food diary to make sure you aren't having the
food-induced migraines?

There are a lot of causes for migraines, so a treatment that works
for one person may not work for another. Here is a nice summary
of various causes and remedies at: www.acu-cell.com/dis-hea.html
Maybe you'll find something that will work for you.

A good question. I get migraine and it is not the same sort of
headache as, eg, from a hangover.

I tried feverfew (yes, I confess to taking an "alt" medicine), but it
didn't seem to work for me. Perhaps I was taking it at the wrong point
in the attack. I have found that a medicine made from extracts of the
Papaver somniferum plant can be effective, although generally it has
to be taken with paracetamol.

Yep.

I was given this by a doctor once. He then wanted to walk me to my car
to make sure I wasn't going to drive myself home!

Where does the extra caffeine come from?

A good question. I get migraine and it is not the same sort of
headache as, eg, from a hangover.

I had a series of headaches, cuminating in a bad one preceded
by a phenomenon that is definitive for diagnosing migraine.
This is a zig-zag pattern of bars across the visual field called
the "fortifications" hallucination, due to its resemblance to
Reinassance-era military defensive walls. Not everybody
who gets a migraine headache sees this, but everybody
who sees it before a headache has a migraine headache.

I prevented further migraine headaches by discovering that
eating soy protein causes them for me. Soy sauce seems
to be okay, and I probably don't have a problem with
soybean oil. But soy protein is definitely out. Since cutting
soy protein out of my diet, I haven't had any more headaches.

Dear Noush98,

without diagnosis any treatment can be dangerous. Therefore you should
see that you arrange finding a diagnosis. Migraine can be caused by
many things, some of them being a simple as the way you sleep.

I think it would be better if you found what was causing it. Did you
know that MSG [monosodium glutimate] and other additives can cause
headaches?
