Synopsis
Based on the breakthrough understanding that virtually all headaches are forms of migraine--because migraine is not a specific type of headache, but the built-in mechanism that causes headaches of all kinds, along with neck stiffness, sinus congestion, dizziness, and other problems--Dr. Buchholz's HEAL YOUR HEADACHE puts headache sufferers back in control of their lives with a simple, transforming program:
Step 1: Avoid the "Quick Fix." Too often painkillers only make matters worse because of the crippling complication known as rebound.
Step 2: Reduce Your Triggers. The crux of the program: a migraine diet that eliminates the foods that push headache sufferers over the top.
Step 3: Raise Your Threshold. When diet and other lifestyle changes aren't enough, preventive medication can help stay the course.
That's it: in three steps turn your headache problems around.
Ronald J. Tusa
This book is clearly written, insightful and filled with useful tips for all individuals with migraine. A must read!

April 19, 2009: This is a wonderful book written by a doctor from Johns Hopkins University. He spent a large deal of his career working with Migraine patients, and explains in detail exactly which foods are headache triggers and tells how to avoid them. If you think you know what foods are triggers and have trouble finding yours, you have not tried his method yet. It works! Patients who were "incurable" were sent to him, and he was able to give them a normal life. Dr. Buchholz also explains why there are so many myths about headahces, and tells exactly what those myths are. If you are tired of being in pain, tired of being on medications and see no end in sight for you, his is the book to purchase. As Dr. Buchholz explains, you do not have to live with your headaches!
