From migraine attacks suffered almost everything. But, it turns out, avoid these terrible headaches can add to your diet some and excluding other products.This is how their suffering with migraines Pontius Pilate: "O gods, what are you punishing me?.. Yes, no doubt it was her, again she is invincible, terrible disease... hemicrania at which half of head hurts... she has no money, there is no salvation... try not to move your head... " the Doctor and writer Mikhail Bulgakov repeatedly heard similar stories from patients. Very often when a migraine the whole head is sick, and not half: pain - pulsating, aggravated by movement, extraneous sounds, forcing you to close your eyes and stand still, not moving.
Classic migraine suffer 18% of women and 6% of male patients with atypical disease more. Their number is steadily increasing. The production of drugs for the treatment of migraine - a multi-billion dollar business. But some drugs to fight the disease impossible to prevent attacks, it is important to adjust your diet. And sometimes, just enough of it.
- Headaches can cause pineapples, bananas, plums, pickled herring, dried fish, poultry, liver, salami, cheese, soy sauce, chocolate, yogurt, beer, some wine, especially red, - says Victor Konyshev, a renowned expert on nutrition, doctor of medical Sciences. The cause of the pain - amines - substances produced in these products of the amino acids naturally or under the influence of bacteria. The most famous of amines - histamine, resulting in spoiled fish, and tyramine, typical of some fruits, raspberries and sauerkraut. There is more serotonin in bananas, tomatoes, sea-buckthorn berries, pineapple, gooseberry, wild nuts.
In the walls of the intestine and in the liver has a special enzyme that destroys amines. So most of us are not experiencing headaches after products with these substances. But some enzymes destroy amines underutilized. Bad work of enzymes contributes to the number of psychotropic drugs. In the instructions to them this feature usually indicate.
Allergies or migraines?
Migraine is often associated not only with amines in food, but with food allergies. In the study, when patients many years suffering from severe headaches, excluded products that cause allergies, already on the fifth day diet 85% of the patients got rid of migraine attacks. The "migraine" products were any dishes with wheat (they caused pain in 78% of patients), orange (65%), eggs (45%), tea and coffee (40% each), chocolate and milk (37% each), beef (35%), corn, cane sugar and yeast (33% each), mushrooms (30%) and peas (28%).
Headaches can cause food additive, widely used in the industry: the flavor enhancer monosodium glutamate, sugar substitute, aspartame, preservatives sodium nitrate - look for these and similar ingredients, which will always point to the products. And to avoid them for sure, if you refuse the finished products and semi-finished products.
After reading this, many people with migraine will sit on a hunger diet. And in vain, because hunger will only provoke new attacks.
The person suffering from migraines, " says Victor Konyshev, you need to "calculate" unacceptable food, after which there are headaches, and further does not include it in the diet.
