Episode 310: Migraines and Headaches

Do you deal with headaches or migraines? Not sure what is causing them or how to get lasting relief? Want natural solutions instead of the conventional over the counters and prescriptions that come with a ton of side effects? Tune in to hear us discuss root causes of headaches and how to treat them, from the occasional headache to the monthly hormonal migraine to the more severe and debilitating migraines.

In this episode, we discuss common drivers of headaches and migraines from food sensitivities to hormonal imbalance to nutrient deficiency and more. Learn why keto has a promising role for migraine sufferers, why you might want to rethink the frequent NSAID use, and what you can use instead when a headache strikes!
