Magnesium Health Watch

There are a multitude of ways people treat their headaches and migraines.   From medications like Imitrex that affect the brain’s serotonins to over-the-counter pain relievers like Ibuprofen, people continue to suffer from painful and frequent headaches.

There are also several non-pharmacological ways to treat migraines and headaches.  Herbs, vitamins and minerals such as magnesium and riboflavin have been helpful for some people.  Relaxation and mediation techniques can be used as a form of migraine prevention, and can be a natural way to boost serotonin levels.  Acupuncture can be used both for acute headache pain management, but also as a preventative measure over the longer term.

Some great references on Headache and Migraine News about how certain types of magnesium supplements have helped many people who suffer from migraines and other headaches.  If you’re suffering from migraines, a magnesium supplement might be worth a try.

Great news from this migraine sufferer:

“I still get migraines, but they are functional migraines (worse around menses) – no nausea, no need to stay in a dark room, I can go to work, etc.  But the hemiplegic and seizure type zone-out episodes are GONE completely.  And I feel like I have my mind back – the fog that I had experienced while on Topamax and Zonisamide, etc has lifted.  I CAN THINK AGAIN!!!  I am going to try adding the CoQ10 and upping my Mag dose (I’m only doing 400mg) and see if that helps the menstrual headaches anymore.

I always thought vitamin “pushers” were just plain weird (sorry), but here I am telling you it’s working for me!!  Good luck.”
