Customer Reviews

Recommended for all headache sufferers!
This is a great book - very informative and contains current information on migraines. The author agrees that migraines are due to a brain sensitivity and it is an illness not just an excuse for skiving! The book shows you how to keep a migraine diary to isolate your triggers, suggestions for dietary changes and supplements. Also a list of celebrity migraine sufferers makes you to realise that you are in good company! Even though this is written for an American audience (and as such some of the information about prescribed medications and talking to your health care practitioner may not be relevant) I still believe that most of the material is useful and would therefore recommend it!
