Blog: Natual Remedies: Prevent a headache
Try relaxing magnesium (200 to 400 mg) to reduce the muscle tension and
spasms that can cause your noggin to throb. But not any type will do. Make sure
the supplement contains at least 200 mg of active elemental magnesium. Because
magnesium is more preventive than curative, the treatment works best on, say,
premenstrual headaches because you can predict when they're coming and take a
dose a day in advance. Those with kidney problems should consult a health care
practitioner before taking magnesium. (taken from: prevention.com)
