Nutritional Deficiencies And Environmental Pollution May Be Causing Massive Migraines

Learn How You Can Spontaneously Transform Your Life
To Be 100% Migraine Pain Free

Did you know at least 45,000,000 Americans report that they suffer from headaches? Personally, I’ve never reported a headache, have you? Just imagine how big the actual numbers of headache sufferers there really are. Sadly, popping all that headache medication isn’t preventing or curing the epidemic migraine syndrome sweeping America. But, it may be actually causing many of them.

It’s called “rebound headaches,” “analgesic rebound headaches” or “medication overuse headaches” (MOH). If you’re having headaches for 7 to 15 days of the month, you may be one of millions of people addicted to anti-migraine or analgesic medications. Considering in the US, 10 to 20,000 tons of aspirin are consumed every year, which only scratches the surface of the total amount of headache medications Americans are swallowing.

There are many types of headache pain along with complications that come with them; the most common type is a migraine. By definition, a migraine is a “one-sided” throbbing pain, hammering away inside your head and robbing you of daily energy.

Migraines are still uncharted territory scientifically speaking, but we do know that migraines are triggered by changes of blood flow within in the brain. When blood vessels in the brain repeatedly contract and expand, nerve endings within these vessels respond by sending out pain signals.

Here are 5 common complications that can come with a migraine:

  1. Light sensitivity
  2. Noise sensitivity
  3. Numbness of limbs
  4. Nausea and vomiting
  5. Hallucinations

Now, common sense will tell you if any Over-The-Counter (OTC) or prescription cure were available, 45,000,000 people wouldn’t be reporting migraines and their dangerous complications, would they?

The good news is there are little known “proven remedies” for chronic migraines and headache pain.

As with any health issues, the solution can be found within the problem. Or, in other words, understanding the cause and undoing it can find the cure.

Rebound Headaches Are Aggravated by Nutritional Deficiencies

The last thing Big Pharma wants you to know is your general health issues, including migraine syndromes, are NOT drug deficiencies. In fact, an overwhelming amount of evidence reveals missing “key nutrients and minerals” cause a lot of human pain and suffering. Your migraines are no exception.

Yet, despite overwhelming evidence bearing against the effectiveness of pharmaceutical drugs these days, millions of people still take them regardless of any real benefits and harmful reactions.

To help make my point, let’s take a quick peek at some other examples of serious problems triggered from specific nutritional deficiencies. As you’ll see, following good old fashion common sense can solve many of your health challenges. Of course, common sense really isn’t so common anymore, is it?

For starters, we know some problems are caused by over eating. Take obesity, heart disease and diabetes, these are generally caused from eating too many “empty calories” and not getting enough exercise. Thanks to plenty of fast “junk” food, most Americans over eat and still suffer from “under nutrition,” simply because THEY’RE NOT GETTING ANY REAL NUTRITION.

Isn’t it ironic that over-eating is a main cause of under-nutrition in America?

Here Are Some Classic Examples Of Dis-Ease Caused From Lack Of Nutrition:

  • Calcium deficiency causes osteoporosis and rickets
  • Iodine deficiency causes goiter
  • Selenium deficiency causes Keshan disease
  • Iron deficiency causes anemia
  • Zinc deficiency causes growth retardation
  • Thiamine (B1) deficiency causes Beriberi
  • Niacin deficiency (b2 or B3) causes Pellagra
  • Vitamin C deficiency causes scurvy and heart disease
  • Vitamin D deficiency causes osteoporosis and rickets

7 Tips For Cleansing and Weight Loss

Most people think of bowel cleansing when they hear the term cleansing, but it means a lot more than that. Below are seven little-known facts about cleansing and weight loss and how they can help with headaches or migraines.

1.    According to some natural health experts, most people carry excess undigested fecal matter in their colon. The sooner they begin to eliminate it, the better they feel. And when it comes to weight loss, the weight lost through the elimination of fecal matter is weight permanently lost.

2.    Each organ that eliminates waste in the body, can be cleansed. The primary organs that detoxify the body are the skin, colon, liver, kidneys, blood and lymphatics. Body wrap experts report that when cleansing formulas for the liver are started a few days before the body wrap, the inches lost increases at least 20%.

3.    Cleansing formulas often contain herbs and supplements that support the organ that’s being cleansed. Some formulas add herbs or supplements that may contribute to weight loss, such as berberine and green tea.

4.    Our body accumulates chemicals, pesticides, heavy metals or other poisons in fat cells throughout the body. It’s believed that the greater the accumulation of these toxins in the body, the harder it is for the fat cell to break down. That’s one reason why it’s difficult to lose weight.

5.    Cleansing formulas may also contain herbal blends to improve the function of the kidneys, GI tract, gall bladder and liver. This can indirectly assist in weight loss by creating a more healthy system overall.

6.    Cleansing always requires drinking more water than what is usually drank during the day. Experts recommend as little as 1 ounce for every 2 pounds of body weight and as much as 1 ounce for every 1 pound body weight.

7.    When cleansing, it’s important to start detoxifying the skin or colon before any other organ, even though liver cleanses may facilitate greater weight loss.

This is because toxins released from the liver will have no open route to leave the body. They end up getting re-circulated throughout the body, causing headaches or migraines, joint aches and pains, fatigue and skin breakouts. Always cleanse the skin or colon first!

Managing Migraine Misery

“Doctor, my headache is so bad. I think it’s a migraine!”

Many people ask me if they might have migraine headaches  — or is it “just” a tension headache?  The amount of pain doesn’t determine the type of headache, but rather what is causing it.  A tension headache is outside the skull and generally covers the whole head “like a tight band.”

A migraine, on the other hand, is “pressure” inside the head.  It is often one-sided, but can change sides from time-to-time.  Associated symptoms might be strange sensations, or vision disturbances such as flashing lights, or darkening such as “tunnel-vision.”  Very often the pain will get worse with bright lights or loud noises.  As a result, people who get migraines seek a dark, quiet place to suffer.  Many people also get nausea and/or vomiting.

Should You Medicate A Migraine?

In the medical world we speak of “control” and “triggers” in regards to migraines.  I rarely use long-term medications to prevent migraines because they have many side-effects and aren’t very effective.  Medications used for the pain include all of the “NSAID” (acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and so forth) drugs, opiate (vicodin, darvocet), and other pain medication, as well as migraine-specific drugs.  This last group includes the “triptans” which constrict blood vessels and will often abort a migraine.  Those who suffer with migraines often have to move around to different drugs as one quits working, to find another that will work – but only for a time.

Migraine Condition Care Guide

15 First Aid Tips for caring for someone you love with migraines

Recently, I twisted my ankle while out hiking with my grandson.  The tender little guy turned to me and said, “Get over it Grandma.  Walk it off.”  This approach to pain may work for some injuries (helpful for little kids but not a sprained ankle!), but it certainly doesn’t work for migraines!

If you have never been under the vice of migraines, it may be tempting to tell someone suffering from a migraine to, “Walk it off.”  But by learning more about migraines and its debilitating effects, as a caregiver you may help sufferers to find relief.
