Did you know that what you eat might influence how often you get a migraine attack? An anti-inflammatory diet, which includes fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and omega-3 rich foods like salmon, may help reduce inflammation in the body and lower the frequency or severity of migraine attacks. Avoiding processed foods, added sugars, and red meat can also make a difference. Small dietary changes can be a powerful tool in managing your migraine health. Taking care of yourself includes the choices on your plate! https://lnkd.in/gPdNwQEB #MigraineHealth #AntiInflammatoryDiet #HeadacheCare
