It’s hard to believe spring has arrived – despite the fact that so many places are still in the middle of snow, rain, and cold, cold weather. But here we are into that season where allergies become a common trigger for migraines!

When we think about migraines and certain triggers, vitamins and minerals are not necessarily the first things that come to mind. However, there are several vitamins, minerals, herbs, etc. that can help with the pain, intensity and frequency of migraines. You don’t have to have been following me long to figure out that I am all about using as many natural solutions as possible when it comes to caring for my body – and getting help with my migraines.

In this blog, I wanted to mention another great alternative that is easy for you to try adding to your daily regimen to see if you find some of these options to be helpful additions to prevent and assist in your own migraine journey.

There have been research studies performed that show that Riboflavin is a good, natural remedy for migraines. Now a recent study shows that vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid supplements have been shown to cause reduction in migraines over a period of six months. This is good news. However, finding a good quality vitamin is also very important. As I have said before, I never purchase any vitamin or supplement from a food or pharmacy chain, but always go to a natural food store to purchase.

Here are my personal choices for these vitamins that I choose from:

Vitamin B12
Vitamin B Complex with Folate
Vitamin B12, B and Folic Acid
Folic Acid
Vitamin B Complex

The research involving the B vitamins and folic acid further stated that “another thing that makes people prone to migraines is a certain gene mutation or dysfunction which is caused by an increased level of homocysteine” (which can reduce the levels of B6 and B12). Interesting huh?  

Migraine attacks can, of course, be caused by other types of vitamin deficiencies, such as a Vitamin D deficiency and low magnesium levels. 

This being the case, it might well be worth asking your treating physician to run your vitamin D and B levels to see if yours are low, and then take a good supplement to see if you get relief.

I do take a good vitamin D supplement, which is actually the type I only have to take once every two weeks. I also make sure I eat a diet full of vitamins, which really helps more than any supplement. 

Increasing your levels of these vitamins could make a big difference for you. I would love for you to hit the comment below and let me know if you are using something, if you decide to give some of these above-mentioned vitamins a try, and how the supplementation works for you.
