#PCOS AND MIGRAINE WITH AURA TRIAL#
That means cutting out synthetic Folic Acid (read why here) and increasing natural folate in your diet (think lots of dark, leafy greens.) And in fact (back onto science), a trial of 141 Australian migraine-suffering women with MTHFR showed over a 6-month period, the women who included more folate in their diet experienced less frequent and/or less severe migraine episodes. Regardless, MTHFR does have a link to migraine and if there’s one thing I’d love you to take away about any MTHFR variant, it’s that you need natural folate (B9) in your diet. Interestingly, I’ve found a number of women with the A1298C variant my migrainey people.
Research has shown those with the MTHFR C677T polymorphism have a greater risk of migraine with aura. I still firmly believe the mind and what you tell yourself about disease is a far more powerful indicator in both creation and healing of health issues. As you may know, I don’t think it’s all aboutevidence-based medicine and clinical trials, as useful as they are in providing one type of information. I don’t like to get too caught up in x=y type scenarios when it comes to health.
(Please note, only take St John’s Wort under your practitioner’s guidance and never if on anti-depressants/SSRIs) Double bonus, St John’s Wort is useful for mild to moderate depression and it’s definitely not uncommon to need some mental/emotional support during this period.
Recognise the lesson behind the symptom.It can show us just how out of touch we are from our body and how far we are willing to push it before it pushes back.īut there’s a lot we can do naturopathically for shingles. One of the biggest causes of shingles is stress. And trust me, having experienced it a few years ago, it is not only exceptionally painful, but if it appears near the nerves surrounding the eye, is potentially dangerous. So if you’ve had chicken pox earlier in life, you’re able to activate a case of shingles in later life. Like all viruses, once contracted, it never completely disappears but lays dormant in the body’s nerve cells until triggered and reactivated. Shingles is the reactivation of the same virus that causes Chicken Pox.
Both of these conditions have links to stress as a key trigger. It may present with a severe headache, or not. Migraine presents in a multitude of ways, from light (aura) and sound sensitivity or nausea and vomiting to facial and one-sided numbness of limbs. It hit the news over the past few days: Rates of shingles have increased significantly over recent years but did you know the most common reason for a shingles episode is stress? If you have ever had chicken pox, you are at risk later in life for this painful (and sometimes dangerous) viral re-activation.
