A new study suggests that taking antioxidant supplements may help to prevent migraine headaches in some people. In the study, several patients who did not respond to drugs (including beta-blockers, antidepressants, and anticonvulsants) were able to reduce the frequency and severity of their migraine headaches by taking a supplement containing pine bark extract, vitamin C and vitamin E every day for 3 months.
According to one researcher:
“The substantial effect shown by the antioxidant formulation in the present study in lessening the impact of migraine on patients’ daily activities warrants further investigation.”
This is certainly good news for anyone who suffers from the intense pain of migraines!

Hi there
I was having servere headaches and later on no medication wanted to work. I stoped the medication and started to take antioxidants after I heard that stress will cause headackes due to the amount of free radicals produced during stessfull situations. Since starting this about a week ago I still have headaches but no so servere and not so often. Do you have more info with regard to this study ?
thanks
Maryke
I also used to be on medication for migraines. When I changed my lifestyle and starting using whole food supplementation that had a high ORAC value (antioxidant value), I found I didn’t really need it any more. I love the taste of the powder when mixed in juice and ice water and wouldn’t do without it. I guess when I fed my body the right nutrients, it was able to heal itself like it was designed to do.
It’s very referential and useful for migraine management.
