Research has shown surprising links between migraines and food. Certain foods can cause migraines, while others can prevent or even treat them. Certain nutrients and herbs are also effective at preventing the onset of migraines or minimizing their intensity. Gut-brain researchers have shown that 95% of the neurotransmitter serotonin is located in the digestive system, not the brain. Interestingly, serotonin is the target of migraine abortive triptan drugs as well as the target of most anti-depressants.
A nutritional consultation can evaluate gut integrity and pinpoint the trigger foods in your diet. A plan will be established to incorporate safe foods as well as beneficial nutrients and herbs when needed to help avoid the onset of debilitating migraines.
