BANISH migraine pain with this African ‘seed trick’
Complain to your doc about migraine pain… and he won’t just have ONE pill ready to shove down your throat.
He’ll throw the whole pharmacy at you!
And the more he PILES pain meds on top of mood meds on top of God-only-knows what else…
The WORSE you could feel.
Some migraine patients just put up and shut up…
Because as AGONIZING as the pain is… some folks consider it more tolerable than Rx side effects.
But you shouldn’t have to choose between the lesser of two evils.
And friend, I’m here today to tell you that you don’t have to.
Because there’s a natural alternative that’s been tested against some of those migraine drugs…
And passed with FLYING COLORS!
Hormone hack
You may have heard of 5-HTP as one of the most POWERFUL, drug-free sleep aids out there.
Nearly EVERY 5-HTP supplement you’ll find on store shelves is manufactured from tryptophan from griffonia seed.
Griffonia (Griffonia simplicifolia) grows wild in the tropical Ivory Coast of West Africa… rainforests of Congo… and grassy savannahs of Central Africa.
African folk medicine has relied on its green, dime-sized seeds (which turn black when dried) for AGES…
But here in the West, we’re only just BEGINNING to figure out what 5-HTP extracted from griffonia seed can do.
And that includes sending migraines PACKING.
Modern research shows how supplementing with 5-HTP can reduce the frequency of migraines…
As well as their severity, including EASING the intensity of the pain and SHORTENING the duration of an attack.
And in studies, its effects have been significant whether compared to placebo (a.k.a. no treatment) or to a migraine drug.
Unfortunately, too many migraine sufferers can’t tolerate the side effects of migraine meds… which could include nausea and drowsiness.
So, for “migraineurs” looking for a drug-free alternative, 5-HTP offers a viable option…
Because although it can help promote healthy sleep, it WON’T zonk you out.
It appears to work for sleep loss and migraines in the same way – by boosting your brain’s supply of the neurotransmitter serotonin.
Also known as the “happy hormone,” serotonin could help you beat back depression and anxiety… get a restful night’s sleep… and ERASE pain!
Folks who suffer from migraines tend to show lower levels of serotonin…
But REPLENISHING their supply appears to provide some relief.
That’s why some docs will prescribe a serotonin-boosting antidepressant (like an SSRI or MAOI) to their migraine patients.
If you suffer from migraines, you know you’re not DEPRESSED – you’re in pain!
And SSRIs carry a whole bunch of risks on their own, including sexual side effects and suicidal thoughts.
Fortunately, your body uses 5-HTP to produce its own, natural supply of serotonin… without those risks.
Just make sure you don’t COMBINE the two serotonin-targeting approaches – because too much of this brain chemical can be a bad thing.
Look for a 5-HTP supplement from a quality maker you trust at your local health food store or online.
