Having some control over our headaches - Deepstash

Having some control over our headaches

  • Migraine is linked to depletions in serotonin. Chocolate contains tryptophan, which your body breaks down into serotonin. Craving chocolate before a headache is your body trying to self-medicate and restore serotonin balance.
  • Dopamine and oxytocin block pain receptors. It means that doing something you love will help increase them.
