Migraines: A Common but Painful Problem

Certain dietary changes, according to studies, have been shown to have a possible effect in reducing or eliminating migraine headaches. A blood-sugar condition known as reactive hypoglycemia is experienced by some migraine headache sufferers, and for these people, avoidance of refined sugar, caffeine, and alcohol can be beneficial. Migraine headaches can also be triggered by allergies to foods, so avoidance of these foods might be necessary to avoid them. Reducing salt in the diet, and eliminating dairy if a lactose intolerance is found, also should be helpful in reducing the occurrence of migraine headaches.

Some doctors have found that reactions to smoking and birth control pills can be additional contributing factors in migraine headaches.

Infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori, an organism that causes peptic ulcers) may predispose people to migraine headaches. In a preliminary trial, 40% of migraine sufferers were found to have H. pylori infection. Intensity, duration, and frequency of attacks of migraine were significantly reduced in all participants in whom the H. pylori was eradicated.18 Controlled clinical trials are needed to confirm these preliminary results.
