Show Highlights
Do antibiotics and gut flora play into headaches and migraines?
Dr. Mill 12:58
- Gut flora is a factor, an independent trigger for headaches. So if you do have some dysbiosis, or different things going on, that can be something that we can dig in.
What would be some of your recommendations for getting a good night's rest for listeners who suffer from migraines?
Dr. Mill 14:12
- I recommend turning off all full-spectrum lights an hour or two before bed. Try to keep your phone in another room.
Have you found any supplements to be helpful for people when they have an acute headache or migraine?
Dr. Mill 32:04
- Peppermint oil can relieve an acute migraine. Magnesium is also very helpful in preventing headaches.
