Preempt The Migraine Attack

In the case of migraine headaches, you have to tread carefully as this condition not only has no cure but it possesses the ability to sneak up on the individual. However, if it does sneak up on you then you completely missed the warning sign that pre-empted the migraine attack. These warning sign occur after the migraine has been triggered by a migraine trigger such as loud noises, certain smells or even fatigue. The warning sign occur in the Prodrome stage of the migraine process of four stages: Prodrome, Aura, Headache and finally Postdrome. If an individual can become aware of the warning signs they experience, they better stop the migraine from becoming so overwhelmingly intense and find some relief.

The Prodrome Stage
The first stage that migraine sufferers endure is referred to as prodrome or the preemptive/pre-headache stage. During the prodrome stage, soon to be migraine suffers will begin to experience symptoms that serve as warning signs such as:

• Fatigue
• Changes In Behavior
• Food Cravings
• Overly Sensitive To Light And Sound
• Constipation
• Irregular urination patterns
• Difficulty sleeping
• Neck and back tension

Messing With Your Head
A migraine messes with the blood vessels in the brain causing them to enlarge releasing a chemical which in turn attacks the arteries in the brain. This attacking causes the immense pain associated with migraines. Some of the other symptoms might include: nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, loss of concentration and even displaced motor skills. Not a pretty picture, however you can minimize these occurrences by first avoiding the triggers that cause these vascular headaches. A trigger is the catalyst that starts the migraine chain reaction and is mostly environmentally caused. Here are some of the known triggers: weather changes, alcohol, foods, caffeine, humidity, neck/back tension, bright light, cigarette smoke and even a lack of sleep. Also, you must follow a migraine treatment plan in order to eliminate these annoying discomforts from your life.

After A Migraine Headache Is Triggered
Migraine headaches are not really headaches but are in fact a neurological condition that develops in the brain. When a migraine is in the early stages, the blood vessels in the brain begin to enlarge and or expand causing intense pain in the head that resembles a pounding or throbbing. The pain of a migraine is felt unilaterally which means it is felt on one side of the head right above the eye. As the blood vessels in the brain expand, they begin to release a harmful chemical into the brain; the released chemical then attacks with fierceness the brain’s arteries creating a whole slew of migraine symptoms to unleash and inflict misery on the migraine patient. The symptoms build and build until the blood vessels return to their original size and the arteries are no longer affected by the attacking chemical.

A Specific Combination Of Vitamins And Minerals
The Migraine Support Formula is not very well known in the medical community nor is it promoted as well as prescribed. There unfortunately is more money to be made with prescription drugs like Triptans and Ergots. The Formula is a specific combination of all-natural vitamins, minerals and herbal supplements which work together in harmony to minimize the intensity and frequency of occurrence of the migraine attacks and symptoms. Here are a few of their ingredients:

• 5 – Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) – By adding more 5-HTP into one’s diet can raise help their serotonin levels in the brain while also increasing their endorphin levels helping aide in the overall improvement of their mood and disposition. It has been proven that those suffering with chronic migraines typically have low serotonin and low endorphin levels. The thought process is that low serotonin and endorphins levels make it extremely challenging to tolerate or endure pain.
• Vitamin B3 (Niacin) – One study done on the benefits of Vitamin B3 in relieving migraines revealed that 81% of people suffering from migraines found relief when treating their migraine with B3.
• Ginko Biloba – Ginko Biloba is a powerful antioxidant made popular by its ability to help improve blood circulation in both the body and the brain. This powerful antioxidant possesses flavonoids and terpenoids which have been tested to show that they help dilate blood vessels which in return surges blood flow. Ginko Biloba is possibly one of most well-known herbal remedies and can be used in the treatment of migraine headaches. The reason that Ginko Biloba makes for such a great treatment options is its ability to hinder platelet aggregation.
