Plant Power: A Path to Migraine Relief
A strictly plant-based diet can significantly alleviate migraine-related nerve inflammation due to its high anti-inflammatory compounds and antioxidants. In clinical studies, participants on a plant-based diet reported reduced pain severity, which may also correlate with weight loss, averaging nine pounds during the study. Additionally, a low-fat diet, characterized by consuming less than 30 grams of fat daily, resulted in remarkably reduced headache frequency, intensity, and duration. Participants experienced a six-fold decrease in migraine occurrences, averaging just one attack a month compared to three every two weeks. This suggests that the benefits of a plant-based, low-fat diet extend beyond mere weight reduction to impact overall migraine management.
