5 Common Triggers for Migraines

Migraines can make it difficult to enjoy your everyday life. They are often accompanied by nausea, lightheadedness, and/or light-sensitivity, and can last anywhere from a few hours to a few days.

There are many different things that can cause migraines, and it's important to understand some of the triggers so that you can avoid them when possible.

Here are a few common triggers for migraines:

Drinks

Drinking alcohol can trigger a serious migraine, wine especially. No one wants a hangover migraine! Drinking too much caffeine can also bring on an unwanted migraine. Try drinking in moderation and slowly to avoid migraines.

Stress

Everyone experiences stress, which can cause you to feel anxious and overthink. Exercising on a regular basis can help release built-up stress and anxiety. Here are some stress relieving exercises to try: everydayhealth.com

Sensory Stimuli

These stimuli include any event or object that your senses respond to. Bright lights, loud sounds, and strong smells can cause migraines. Try to be aware of these triggers and do your best to avoid them!

Sleep Changes

Missing sleep, getting too much sleep, or jet lag can cause migraines. Establishing a set sleep schedule can help you feel well-rested and energized. Here are some tips on how to sleep better at night: healthline.com

Low Magnesium

The severity of migraines can be amplified by the lack of magnesium in the body. If magnesium levels become depleted, your migraines will intensify and occur more frequently.

In fact, if you don't have enough magnesium, you may also suffer from low mood, joint stiffness, poor digestion, and a variety of other symptoms.

This mineral is essential in keeping your body healthy since it influences over 300 reactions in the body. The recommended amount of magnesium is dependent upon your sex and age.

Unfortunately, magnesium can't enter the blood brain barrier or muscle tissues unless it is combined with certain co-factors, like B group vitamins and Zinc. If you take a pure magnesium supplement by itself, most of it will be excreted from your body, and it will have little to no effect on your migraines.

Outback Magnesium+ is an all-natural, daily supplement that may help to reduce the frequency and severity of migraines over-time. It is not for temporary relief while you are experiencing a migraine.
