Goodbye to Migraines with This Simple Natural Remedy

Migraines they’re not particularly nice to have to deal with. Luckily, there’s an amazing natural remedy I can use to stop my migraines in their tracks. Let me teach you how to make it:
 
Make This Magic Migraine Potion
All you’ll need to make this magical remedy is a glass of water, lemon juice and two teaspoons of salt. Just mix these ingredients together and drink. The mixture will begin to work within a few minutes.
Try and use good quality salt in your mixture. Pink Himalayan sea salt, for instance, contains 80 different trace minerals including magnesium. Drinking salt in this mixture will allow you to ingest it quickly, and is proven to raise levels of serotonin in the body, thereby quelling pain and inflammation.

Do you need this remedy?
Migraines affect almost one in 10 people, or nearly 36 million Americans when taking the population of the US into account. Migraines are also in the top 20 list of reasons why people call in sick for work.
Lemon Salt Water will benefit you if you suffer from:
  • Head throbbing
  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Numbness
  • Tingling
  • Dizziness
  • Light, noise, and smell sensitivity
  • Pain that lasts from 2 to 72 hours
Why We Get Migraines to Begin With
If you’re one of the unlucky 10% of people that suffer from migraines, you’re probably wondering what causes them. Migraines develop due to a variety of things, from stress, to alcohol consumption, to vitamin and mineral deficiencies. With that being said, the most common reasons for the development of migraines are either dehydration or electrolyte imbalance.
The Big D
Did you know that you can still become dehydrated even if you drink plenty of water? This can occur when electrolyte levels in your body are low. Your body works to remove the excess water in order to bring it in balance with your electrolytes. This balance is called homeostasis.
In addition, medical practitioners theorize that migraines themselves actually cause dehydration, which can lead to the initiation of a vicious cycle, with dehydration causing migraines, and vice versa. This means that the migraines you’re experiencing could last for days as your body struggles to achieve homeostasis.
The Big E
Electrolytes are minerals in your body that have a positive electrical charge. They are responsible for some very important bodily processes, such as nerve function, cardiovascular system regulation, and muscle function regulation.
Another important mineral in addition to electrolytes is magnesium, which is a natural anti-inflammatory. It is thought that migraines are an inflammatory response, therefore it’s a good idea to use high-quality salt in the mixture outlined above to reduce the symptoms of a migraine, or stop one from developing at all.

FOODS TO ALLEVIATE HEADACHE

We all know that headache can be horrible, at times nauseating, spoiling our whole day. At those times, in stead of going for pills, try some of these foods to see if it helps-
1. Baked Potato
 Baked potato can alleviate a headache, especially one caused by drinking alcohol. Since alcohol causes an increase in urine, it can cause dehydration and the loss of important electrolytes such as potassium. Eating foods rich in potassium can then ease hangover headaches. A potato with the peel is one of the best sources of this mineral, containing about 720 mg of potassium (to compare, a banana, also rich in potassium, contains about 460 mg).
2. Watermelon As we said above, dehydration is one of the leading reasons for headaches, so before you take that pill, consider eating foods rich in water, such as the watermelon. There are many fruits and vegetables rich in water and some also contain important minerals such as magnesium, which is considered to be an aid against headaches. 
3. Coffee
 The brown liquid we all drink to make it through the day has long since been considered a great folk medicine against headaches. In fact, many headache pills contain caffeine. The secret, however, is moderation.  While alcohol makes the blood vessels in our body and head expand, coffee does the opposite, by shrinking them. This way, it can reduce the amount of pain we feel.

However, if you drink too much caffeine, you will increase the amount of urine which can result in dehydration, causing a headache. So, drink a cup of coffee, no more, or add a cup of water as well.
4. Whole Wheat Bread
People on a diet low in carbohydrates may suffer from frequent headaches, since this kind of diet decreases the body's store of glycogen - a main source of energy for the brain. This way, the body loses liquid and gets dehydrated, resulting in headaches. Consider adding some complex carbs to your diet, like those in whole wheat, fruit or yogurt. It may also improve your mood, since it enables the body to release serotonin.

 5. Almonds

Research shows that the magnesium in almonds may protect the body from headaches by releasing the blood vessels. For those who suffer from migraines, a diet rich in magnesium may bring about great relief. To increase your intake of magnesium, try to consume almonds, bananas, avocado, whole rice etc. 
6. Spicy Salsa
This may sound weird, but spicy foods like spicy salsa or hot peppers can help you get rid of that headache that much faster. The question is - what caused the pain? These foods are great at solving pain related to your sinuses. The spicy foods will open the airways, which will alleviate the headache
7. Yogurt
 When your head feels like it is aching in a fast throb, it may be your body trying to tell you that it needs calcium to function efficiently. Make sure you have calcium rich foods as part of your diet, like regular Greek yogurt with no fat, an excellent source of calcium and helpful probiotics, without any extra fat and sugar. 

8. Sesame Seeds

The tiny sesame seeds contain a large amount of vitamin E, which may help stabilize estrogen levels in women and so prevent migraines. Along with the fact that it helps with headaches, it may also help with blood circulation. Sesame seeds are also rich in magnesium.
9. Spinach
 What works for Popeye can work for you as well. Spinach has been proven to reduce blood pressure and deal with hangovers. So if your head is throbbing, consider a big salad, and instead of lettuce, use spinach.
