18. Treating Migraine Headaches with Detoxification

Today we lead stressful lives and pay little attention to leading a healthy life.

We eat junk food in large quantities, since nobody has time to cook nutritious

food. As a result, we ingest many toxins through the food and the environment.

The body has a mechanism for eliminating these substances. However, when we
abuse our body by over consumption of junk food, the level of the toxins

increases and the body cannot function properly, leading to an increase in
toxicity.

These poisonous substances may help to cause diseases like cancer or other

lifestyle diseases like obesity and heart disease.

In such a scenario, it is a good idea to undergo a detoxification program to
cleanse the body and the soul. The detoxification involves elimination of waste

products through the body by consuming a light diet of fruits and vegetables or

totally keeping off food for a day. Detoxification can lead to a healthier lifestyle
and peace of mind that can minimize occurrence of migraine headaches.

You must adopt a detoxification program based on your needs and follow the
natural seasonal cycle for this. Include natural organic foods and consume a lot

of water. Do not use allopathic medicines for any ailment, but go for naturopathy

or a homeopathic system of medicines. Consult a qualified naturopath for a
suitable detoxification plan if you are not confident of doing this yourself.

Initially, you may experience weakness but, with determination, you can undergo
a detoxification successfully.

Detoxification introduces you to a healthier lifestyle. Undergoing this process

helps you feel light and free of stress. This, in turn, minimizes the trigger factors

of migraine headaches and may bring some relief.
