(Rodale, 2007), renowned nutritionist Joy Bauer shares which miracle-working foods can ease migraines...

If you opt for nutrient-rich foods, you can achieve overall wellness while treating common health ailments. Here are Bauer's top picks for treating migraine headaches:

1. Omega 3-fortified eggs: Rich in omega 3 fats, these specialized eggs reduce the inflammation thought to cause migraines.

2. Beans: Legumes are loaded with magnesium; a deficiency in this mineral has been linked to migraines.

3. Skim milk: Milk is full of riboflavin, a B-vitamin that plays a role in energy production at the cellular level; lack of cellular energy is thought to trigger migraines.

4. Ground flaxseeds: These tiny seeds are a big source of the essential omega 3 fats that reduce inflammation.

5. Spinach: These leafy greens are an excellent source of magnesium.
