Fish Oil and Omega 3 Health Benefits

Can Omega 3 Fatty Acids Prevent Migraine Headaches?

Is there anything you can do but draw the blinds, turn out the lights and crawl into bed when you’re being assaulted by a nasty migraine headache? Well, chances are, that’s all you can do after puking and taking your pain relievers. Not quite a pretty sight, eh?

But people who deal with migraines on a regular basis developed their own coping mechanisms. They simply have to in order to cope up with the pain.

But don’t despair - there is still hope. You can control your migraine using a more natural but effective approach. Here are some simple suggestions that may work in keeping you migraine-free forever!

• Ban the triggers. Most migraines seem to be triggered by factors such as glandular imbalances, stress or tension, various foods (chocolate, alcohol and caffeine) and additives (food coloring, MSG), and various medications such as birth control pills. Nobody knows for sure how these factors bring on a migraine episode. So, instead of wallowing in misery every time your migraine strikes, why not find out what your specific triggers are and try to eliminate them? That simple step alone will go a long way towards a migraine-free future!
• Improve your diet. Sounds like a broken record? Well, pardon me, but if you really want to stay healthy and migraine-free, you need to have a good, natural whole food diet. Go for whole grain rice, wheat and soy. An please do not be deceived by white rice, enriched wheat, and GMO soy thinking that they offer the same nutrients. They simply don’t. They can even do more harm than good so beware!
• Put the rainbow into your diet. Do you know that just by eating between 5 and 13 servings of colorful fruits and vegetables on a daily basis, you are indeed fortifying your body’s defenses against a lot of diseases? For best results, go for those that are rich in phytonutrients like carotenoids (carrots, sweet potatoes, kale, spinach), flavonoids (grapes, blueberries, nuts, herbs, spices, hot pepper) and cruciferous compounds (cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli).
• Prefer lean. Low fat dairy products, eggs and lean meats, such as chicken and fish, complete your whole food diet. As much as possible, eat oily cold water fish like salmon, tuna, mackerel, sardines and anchovies. They are some of the richest sources of omega 3 fatty acids, which have been shown to dramatically decrease the pain and frequency of migraine headaches.
• Supplement you diet. With what? With the best quality fish oil supplement there is – Salmon Oil Plus! Studies show that regular intake of omega 3 fish oils provides great relief from migraine headaches. And what’s more, some of my clients have even found that taking several capsules at the first indication of a migraine has actually minimized or prevented it from happening. Now, isn’t that reason enough to start taking Salmon Oil Plus now?

You have the power to take your life back from the clutches of migraine headaches. Give these natural alternatives a try. You might be in for the surprise of your life!
