• Chocolate
• Cheese (except cream cheese, cottage cheese, and American cheese)
• Yogurt and sour cream
• Nuts (including peanut butter)
• Processed cured and aged meats (including hot dogs, sausage, bacon, salami, and bologna)
• Alcoholic drinks (especially red wine, champagne, and dark or heavy drinks; vodka is least likely to provoke headaches)
• MSG (monosodium glutamate)
• Citrus fruits (oranges, grapefruit, lemons, limes) and pineapples and their juices

Diet Against A Migraine

First, try to avoid all food triggers. If you drink a lot of coffee, try cutting down on it by one cup every few days until you feel comfortable. After a couple of weeks start experimenting by adding back a food item one at a time every five days or once a week. If a headache occurs, you will know the headache trigger. Avoid that food in the future. To avoid headaches eat more fish, lobster, green olives, ginger, oysters, nuts, seeds, liver and wheat bran.

You have headaches and don’t want to drink medicines? In that case, try this. Drink a half cup of strong coffee with lemon juice. It may help.
