LIVER HEALTH & MIGRAINES: THE CONNECTION NO ONE TALKS ABOUT

Most people think migraines start in the head…
but the root often begins in the liver.

Here’s the quick, “makes-so-much-sense” explanation:

1. Your liver is your hormone traffic controller.

When it’s sluggish or overwhelmed, estrogen can build up.
➡️ Estrogen dominance is one of the most common migraine triggers in women, especially around cycles, ovulation, postpartum, and perimenopause.

2. The liver filters inflammatory byproducts.

When it’s backed up, those inflammatory compounds recirculate.
➡️ You feel that as pressure behind the eyes, sensitivity to light, throbbing pain…
aka migraine central.

3. Blood sugar swings start in the liver.

A struggling liver = higher highs, lower lows.
➡️ Low blood sugar episodes are a major trigger for tension headaches + migraines.

4. Detox pathways affect the brain.

If your liver isn’t processing toxins efficiently, those toxins don’t just sit — they circulate.
➡️ Many women feel this as “migraine hangovers,” nausea, and brain fog.

5. The gut + liver are a team.

If the gut isn’t eliminating properly, the liver has to work double time.
➡️ That extra burden shows up as headaches, migraines, irritability, and fatigue.

Maybe there is something to the pink drink that I’ve loved for 13+ years 🤔

It just got published in a national magazine 👀

There’s a reason my “pink drink” is patented.

Are you a perimenopausal or menopausal woman looking for ways to naturally manage/improve your symptoms?

I've been digging into this a lot and here's some helpful tips I've found! If you'd like to know how I'm filling these gaps, I'm open to share!

Gut health: Impacts hormone metabolism and mood.
Why it helps: Hormonal fluctuations can throw gut health off balance, leading to bloating, digestive issues, and increased stress/anxiety.

Blood sugar control: Stabilizes energy and reduces hot flashes.
Why it helps: Blood sugar swings worsen hot flashes, cravings, and energy dips in perimenopause.

Inflammation management: Reduces joint pain and discomfort.
Why it helps: Inflammation often increases during menopause and contributes to joint pain, headaches, and overall discomfort.

Mood support: Addresses anxiety, brain fog, and irritability.
Why it helps: Lower cortisol (the stress hormone) and naturally support serotonin levels (the "feel good" chemical).

Nutrient support: Covers common midlife deficiencies.
Why it helps: Nutrient deficiencies (especially in B vitamins, D, and magnesium) can worsen fatigue, mood swings, and joint discomfort during menopause.

Your biology hasn’t changed, but your environment has.

Your ancestors didn’t fear protein, fat, or the sun.
They ate real food, rose with the sun, and moved all day.
They lived in sync with nature.

Today, we live under artificial lights, bathe in endocrine-disrupting chemicals, and eat ultra-processed foods filled with refined carbs and seed oils.

We fear fat, but not the industrial oils that disrupt our metabolism.
We avoid the sun, but spend hours staring at blue light that wrecks our circadian rhythm.
We slather on synthetic products, but rarely question their hormonal effects.

It’s no surprise chronic diseases are rising. Our modern world is hijacking our biology.

But your body hasn’t forgotten how to live.

The answer isn’t more medication or quick fixes. It’s addressing the root cause, using food as medicine, and creating an environment where your body can heal.

Get back to the basics.
That’s where real healing begins.

Drop a “YES” below and I’ll DM you how you can begin to heal 🥰

Great article by Lara Briden, a naturopathic doctor and women's health & hormone specialist sharing about magnesium. Plexus Biocleanse is a magnesium supplement. 😉

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
"As my patients can tell you, I prescribe magnesium for almost every hormonal condition, including PCOS, thyroid, hair loss, PMS, migraines, and perimenopause. I love magnesium because it makes people feel better almost immediately.

📚 What’s up with this mineral? Why are we all so deficient? We’re deficient because our cells dump magnesium during stress. We actively push it out of our bodies as a way to rev up our nervous system and cope with daily life.

📚 A revved-up nervous system is what an average modern human needs to get through an average modern day. If you work, commute, drink coffee or worry, then you are deficient in magnesium. If you live the meditative life of a monk on a mountainside, then you’re probably okay.

8 ways magnesium rescues hormones

🌿 REGULATES CORTISOL. It calms your nervous system and prevents excessive cortisol. Your stress hormonal system—also called your hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis—is your central hormonal system. When it functions well, then your other hormones (thyroid and reproductive hormones) will function well too.

🌿 REDUCES BLOOD SUGAR and normalizes insulin. It’s so effective at improving insulin sensitivity that I refer to magnesium as “natural metformin”. Healthy insulin sensitivity means fewer sugar cravings and is effective treatment for weight loss and PCOS.

🌿 SUPPORTS THYROID. It is essential for the production of thyroid hormone. It is also anti-inflammatory, which helps to quiet the autoimmune inflammation that underlies most thyroid disease. Other ways to address thyroid autoimmunity include gluten-elimination and a selenium supplement.

🌿 AIDS SLEEP. As I’ve written before, magnesium is the great sleep-promoter, and sleep is crucial for hormone production. Sleep is when we should enjoy a beneficial surge of anabolic hormones such as DHEA and growth hormone.

🌿 FUELS CELLULAR ENERGY. It’s so intricately involved with mitochondria and energy production, that we can safely say: “Without magnesium, there is no cellular energy”. Hormonal tissue has a high metabolic rate, and so requires even more cellular energy and more magnesium than other tissue.

🌿 MAKES HORMONES. It aids in the manufacture of steroid hormones including progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone. That may be why magnesium has been shown to reduce hot flashes by 50 percent.

🌿 ACTIVATES VITAMIN D. Without enough magnesium, vitamin D cannot do its job. Conversely, too much vitamin D supplementation causes magnesium deficiency.

🌿 SLOWS AGING. It prevents telomere shortening, reduces oxidative stress, and enhances the production of glutathione.
Magnesium is a big player in emergency rooms, where it treats heart arrhythmias, heart attack, and migraines. But why should it be restricted to acute care? It’s time for magnesium to take up its role in treating hormonal problems." 💗 LB
