Migraines
Migraines are much more than headaches. They are much more than a magnesium deficiency. Acutally, the migraine brain is designed for hypervigilance.

We must find simple solutions & modifications so that your brain can rest assured that the environment is a safe place.
Prodomes
The impending doom. The prodrome is the early indicator that a migraine is approaching. It is actually a series of events that ramps up the "fight, flight, flee, or fawn" response. It is not too late though as if cellular energy is increased before full depletion, the migraine can be avoided. Some of the more common prodromes include, anxiety, dizziness, tingling, visual aura, blurred vision, eye pain, IBS, restless leg, yawning, & light sensitivity.
