Nutritional Guidelines To Combat Or Even Overcome Migraine:

1 Correcting and preventing low blood sugar level:

This in other words is called Hypoglycaemia, a health state in which the blood sugar level in your body drops below the normal range, which is not safe and comfortable for your body. This however does not indicate that should end up eating something sugary, for an increase in sugar level will lead to the production of more insulin, which in turn will cause the sugar level to fall again. The symptoms may vary from weakness, shaking, irritability, nausea, fatigue and pallor. The good news is that sensible snacking and adopting good eating habits both high in fibre and sweet can prove beneficial. This could be fruit, a slice of wholemeal bread with a topping of banana, honey, biscuit, etc. Always keep healthy snacks readily available at work and at home.

2 Stick To Fresh Foods:

Focus your eating plan on fresh vegetables, fruits, and whole gram cereal foods, with lean proteins, small amounts of fat and plenty of water. Avoid processed meats such as salami and other sausages, mangetout, and the flavor enhancer “Monosodium glutamate” (MSG). MSG is found in a lot of ready-made meals, bottled sauces, crisps and often in Chinese restaurant food. Stick to fresh foods and avoid MSG intake. Eat a variety of foods to keep your body well nourished and disease free.
