Over the next week, I will point out different markings in my client's eyes. This information is for educational purposes only and not a substitute for the advice provided by your physician.
My client has experienced migraines as a child and as an adult headaches. The arrow and the black line mark where the blood vessels are in the limbus indicate they are invasive versus non-invasive. These are called a Migraine Net, according to Toni Miller.
Invasive migraine nets are affected by foods such as dairy, sugar, and gluten. Tyramine can trigger headaches and migraines. Tyramine is in aged cheese, cured meat, fermented foods, some fruits (bananas and citrus), soy products, chicken, chocolates, and nuts. Tyramine causes the blood pressure to rise, resulting in headaches.
Phenyl-amine is an essential amino acid that can also be a trigger. It is in meat, eggs, dairy, nuts, beans, and artificial sweeteners. Keep a food diary to discover if these foods are the source of your migraines and headaches.
Eating small meals can help stabilize blood sugar and prevent headaches.
Unfortunately, an individual can also experience changes in the climate, cold and hot, leading to headaches and migraines.
Some common herbs naturally reducing headaches are feverfew (not used during pregnancy), valerian, ginger, peppermint, lavender, frankincense, wintergreen, and basil. You can use these as supplements, teas, or oils. Toxins can be absorbed in the bloodstream, circulating throughout the body. A cleansing e***a can be helpful when a headache strikes to remove toxins that can cause headaches.
Emotionally, relationships with others can trigger headaches. Do you find pain or irritation in a relationship? That could be the source of the pain in your head! Setting up clear boundaries can be helpful. Processing with a counselor or therapist to navigate the relationship can be key to supporting your health.
