Diet can cool off that irritant headache

Many people who suffer from recurrent headaches find that simple changes to their diet can offer fast and effective relief. Eating small, regular meals, for example, is a good preventive measure, as skipping meals is known to cause a drop in blood sugar levels, which in turn can precipitate headaches.

If you often wake up with a headache, low blood sugar could be the culprit. Try to maintain levels by eating a snack last thing at night, and again on waking in the morning.
