Herbs For Migraines

A migraine is a severe, throbbing headache that usually begins on one side of the head but may affect the whole head. Attacks can last for hours or days and may be preceded by warning signs.

The precise underlying cause of this type of headache is unknown. The prevailing theory is that they are sparked by spasms in the arteries that supply blood to the brain.

Some research suggests a correlation between migraines and low levels of the brain chemical serotonin.

Common triggers are thought to include certain foods, stress, lack of sleep, bright light, changes in the weather, fluctuations in blood sugar levels, liver problems, and hormonal swings.

Migraines tend to run in families, and women are about three times more likely than men to have them.
