My #1 Choice in Magnesium Supplements

I've been compiling a juicy selection of migraine food recipes for years now.

Now in a a huge collection, I've had to convert them all for my allergies (dairy, wheat, almonds, sugar, etc.) and to be migraine friendly.

Having studied Chinese Medicine and Nutrition over the years, I've chopped and changed recipes to suit me and incorporate the new things I learned. I love food! This page is going to be a work in progress for some time, so please bear with me whilst I find an easy way to copy all the recipes for you.

In the meantime, please feel free to submit whatever your favorite and easy pain free recipe is... or recipes on the form below. The more the merrier. Happy tummy - happy mummy!

Make Good Choices... That Way You're In Control

Good choices for migraine recipes, according to Carol Foster, MD. author of Migraine, Your Questions Answered (and my two cents) are:

Meat Dishes:

• Grilled chicken, steak or lamb (no MSG, sauces or tenderizers)

• Steamed vegetables and

• Garden salad with olive oil and white vinegar dressing (I prefer apple cider vinegar)

Fish Dishes:

• Baked or poached salmon, mild white fish or tuna

• Plain steamed rice (organic white, basmati or wild)

• Steamed broccoli and cauliflower

• Tuna burgers with homemade fries, lettuce and tomato

Pasta Dishes:

• Gluten Free pasta with garlic butter or oil and herbs

• Grilled chicken or fish

• Steamed vegetables

• Spinach salad

Salad Dishes:

I would recommend trying to always make your own homemade salad dressing from: olive oil, apple cider vinegar, herbs like basil, rosemary, and oregano. Garlic and black pepper are nice sometimes too. You can add honey or anything from the allowed migraine foods list.

• Fresh spinach salad with grilled chicken, dried cranberries, fresh strawberries and a raspberry vinaigrette dressing.

• Tuna salad

• Taco salad

• Stuffed eggplant and garden salad with above dressing

• Fresh fruit for dessert (kiwi, pineapple or papaya/pawpaw all aid digestion)

Are You Brave Enough For These New Migraine Recipes?

I have a new take on high protein breakfasts for you, if you're brave enough to try it.

I've been using this way of eating for years now. My doctor, at the time, was treating me for recovery from chronic illness and I discovered that when I removed my organic chicken broth, that my migraines reduced significantly.

After further experimentation, I concluded that it could have been the combination of onion, carrots and celery that must have been a trigger for me (FODMAP). But I was not able to maintain the significant reduction in migraine attacks from avoiding the soup broth.

Food testing can be trial and error... and draining!

Anyway, back to this new idea... the method uses steamed, cooked and puréed foods to provide optimum nutrition to the body - quickly. Being puréed means it is almost predigested. However, having said that, because you drink your food you may also benefit from taking additional digestive enzymes.

High Protein Puréed Meals for Quick Recovery and More Energy

You don't have to purée these, you can just eat them steamed. Stay tunedfor more 'normal' recipes below! And remember you can send us yourfavorite migraine recipes too.
