Is Stress Giving You A Migraine?

For some people stress can often be their most common migraine trigger. It's very important to have a understanding of stress and how dealing with it in your daily life will help some way to managing a migraine.

Take a look at your daily routine and consider what you can add or remove that will reduce stress.This in turn will help to alleviate or relieve the pain.

Having a regular sleep pattern is crucial to reducing stress levels in the body. One of the best ways to do this is to set a routine so that your body clock regulates itself for bedtime and waking up. This will usually take about probably 2 -3 weeks for your body to adapt to this new routine and is certainly vital that you adhere to the times set. After a while your body will gradually get used to the new routine and you will see a reduction in your stress levels, and the number of migraine headaches.

Exercise is an excellent way to reduce the likelihood of a migraine headache. Firstly find an exercise that you enjoy and then persevere with it. Not only does exercise give you a healthy body, but also helps with giving your mind a "rest". We have a tendency to forget our worries when exercising. One easy exercise is a brisk walk, for about half hour a day, perhaps 3 to 4 times a week.

Many sufferers quite often don't realise that their diet may be triggering their migraine attacks. Being aware of certain types of foods that can cause such attacks is essential. Steer clear of processed foods and those foods which include high sugar content. Keep in mind that processed and sugary foods are not good for the body and in some cases may increase stress levels. Because every sufferer's food trigger may be different, what may affect one person may not always affect another the same way.

Reducing the amount of caffeine and alcohol intake will help combat the possibility of a migraine. Try alternatives such as decaffeinated beverages or fruit juice. If you must succumb to the temptation of having an alcoholic drink, try at least to drink smaller measures and alternate with a drink of water.

Dairy products such as aged cheeses are often related to the cause of migraine,although this may not always be the case for every sufferer.

Many processed meats and ready meals contain MSG (monosodium glutamate) and sodium nitrate. Both or either one of these can trigger a migraine headache. Instead it may be worth considering eating poultry or freshly purchased and prepared meats.

Identifying the areas that cause stress in your life will go a long way in helping to prevent the possibility of an attack. It may be a good idea to share your problems, concerns and thoughts with others. Keeping issues to yourself may provoke stress, which in turn may induce a migraine.

Learning how to relax can also be beneficial, however that doesn't mean turning on the TV or picking up a newspaper. Remember it's all about reducing those stress levels, which if you don't pay enough attention to, will quite easily lead to a migraine headache.
