Migraine is one of the neurological diseases & refers to headaches that occur like attacks, throbbing, stabbing or pulling, usually only localized on one side. Further symptoms are nausea, sensitivity to light, smell or noise. Sometimes the headache is preceded by special sensations such as visual disturbances (migraine aura).

Why is nutritional therapy important?

Nutritional therapy supports you in supplying all of the fatty acids, micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) that are important to you, energy and protein, so that your body is optimally supplied. For this purpose, foods that promote inflammation are specifically avoided and plenty of anti-inflammatory foods are consumed. Weight reduction is recommended if you are overweight / obese. An anti-inflammatory diet can improve your health.

The following amines are discussed as triggers for migraines:

Tyramine and phenylethylamine.

With a corresponding predisposition, migraine attacks can be triggered with as little as 3 mg.

The diet will be further adjusted for you so that you avoid foods that could "trigger" you.

Histamines can also trigger migraine attacks.

The relationship between diet and migraines is the meaning of:

- pro-inflammatory substances (= inflammatory mediators)

- and anti-inflammatory substances (= anti-inflammatory mediators) play a role

Goals:

- Reduction of inflammatory food ingredients

- while increasing the amount of anti-inflammatory food ingredients

- make sure you have a sufficient supply of vitamin D.

Blood count:

It is advisable to have your Omega 3 index checked regularly. This provides information about the supply of valuable omega 3 fatty acids (alpha-linolenic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid), which can significantly counteract inflammatory processes in the body.

Classification of your weight - definition and classification of weight in relation to height.

Special percentile curves apply to children and adolescents; the BMI cannot simply be used here.

BMI and interpretation: BMI: body mass index. Formula: Body weight in kg : (body height in m) 2

Underweight: <18.5

Normal weight: 18.5 - 24.9

Overweight = pre-obesity: 25-29.9

Obesity grade I: 30 - 34.9

Obesity grade II: 35-39.9

Obesity grade III:> 40 = per magna
