Chronic
migraine has hampered a large part of my adult life, sometimes occurring twice every
month. As the pain is not confined to the head, I believe this horrible
condition is part of something bigger. This is why I feel the definition ‘a bad
headache’ is terribly inaccurate.
This
inspired me to write my second book, ‘Migraine:
Part of Something Bigger…’ under my pen name, Phoebe Greene, dedicated to
the sufferer of migraines.

My second book concentrates
solely upon preventing migraines. Snippets of information from my first book can
be found where applicable, but the subject of migraines is covered in much greater
depth.
With dozens of
photos and illustrations and over 15,000 words, this book provides an easy but
in-depth read on how migraines occur and how they can be prevented.
Body Temperatures
and Migraines
The Migraine Trust
and the NHS state that the cause of migraines is ultimately unknown, but I have
unearthed the chief triggers to be:
Estrogen dominance
Overproduction of
the stress hormones cortisol, adrenaline and noradreline
And candida albicans.
Between them, they
wreak havoc upon the endocrine system, exhausting the adrenals and deflating
the output of other hormones throughout the body. Further, a sugary diet,
stress and chemicals in certain products overload the liver, which
underperforms because the body’s thermogenesis is malfunctioning.
Little surprise such
a huge upheaval has repercussions in the form of migraine.
Supported by scholarly
articles and authorative websites, I discovered a way of reducing the incidence
and intensity of my migraines to a point where they now seldom occur. Hormonal equilibrium is key. I believe most
migraineurs can also do the same.
Find also a guide to
the endocrine system, a guide to other treatment for migraines and an
anti-migraine diet.
This book on
migraines is a must for migraine sufferers.
