Raw food diet and migraines?
Posted by: Anonymous User ()

Hi, I am new to the site and have been thinking for quite a while about changing over to a raw food diet. Problem I wonder about is that certain fruits/vegiges can trigger migraine. For me bananas/grapes/citrus, and have heard avocados also. So is there anyone out there who has migraines and started a raw diet? If so I would love imput and advice on how to get started. In the past I have tried eliminating a lot and tried my best to eat natural but fell off the wagon so to speak because of not educating myself enough. I really believe there could be a way to balance the migraines and hopefully even eliminate them. Mine are triggered by foods, weather changes, hormones, and smells. This site is wonderful-Thanks all!

Sorry this is really late... but I'm definitely a chronic migraine sufferer, though they're mostly triggered by non-vegan foods (chocolate, eggs, cheese, dyes, etc.) and strong sunlight (cause, you know, I'm a vampire.) Going raw can be very beneficial, in my opinion, because you'll be getting a lot more direct (nondenatured) vitamins (B, in particular) and magnesium. I know that kale has pretty much saved me. Good luck to you.

I get one once a year. Since I started raw its been more rare. Funny though, I just had one a couple of days ago and it was horrendous and ill timed. I guess it wasn't funny at all.

Since I get them infrequent I never done much about it, but I don't think there is much for someone like me to do about it due to its infrequency.

I've never discovered my triggers but I do get auras.
