Migraine

"Migraine is an epidemic that can be stopped for good by treating the cause and not the symptoms."
- Dr. Raghu Bajwa, M.D. Pain Management Specialist

The word Migraine is French in origin and comes from the Greek hemicrania, as does the Old English term megrim. Literally, hemicrania means "half (the) head". A migraine is a very painful type of headache. People who get migraines often describe the pain as pulsing or throbbing in one area of the head. During migraines, people are very sensitive to light and sound. They may also become nauseated and vomit.

Migraine is three times more common in women than in men. Some people can tell when they are about to have a migraine because they see flashing lights or zigzag lines or they temporarily lose their vision.

More than 25 million Americans suffer from migraine-the crippling debilitating recurring headache. Most migraine patients have trouble working, eating, sleeping, studying, enjoying holiday celebrations, or even caring for their children or loved ones once the pain begins. Migraine is an epidemic that can be stopped for good by treating its root cause-the digestive dysfunction, which actually triggers the migraine pain.

After years of research and clinical studies, we have isolated the root cause of migraine-digestive dysfunction, which triggers the migraine pain.

Our wholly natural blend of herbs gives a synergistic result. Herbs for our formula are carefully selected and combined to provide optimum results to relieve and eliminate migraine. Our food supplement consists of primary herbs, supporting herbs, bio-availability herbs, herbal cofactors and balancing herbs. These herbs, carefully blended in Migrowin, help with digestive dysfunctions.

Digestive dysfunction can deprive the body from obtaining optimum amount of nutrients from food that helps, repair and regenerate the body. The brain chemicals / neurotransmitters (like Dopamine, Serotonin, Norepherine) are dependant on proper digestion. Therefore if the digestion is inadequate, the production of neurotransmitters involved in brain function and attention will also be inadequate.

One of the most important links that can be established between digestive dysfunction and migraine is through Serotonin.

The levels of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), a vasoconstrictor and a central neurotransmitter, seem to decrease during migraine whereas an intravenous infusion of 5-HTP can abort migraine (Villalon et al.,2003; Timothy and Birdsall, 1998) 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5- HTP) is the intermediate metabolite of the essential amino acid L-tryptophan (LT) in the biosynthesis of serotonin. LT is present in food such as turkey meat, chicken and ground beef etc, and availability of LT in the blood stream is dependent on proper digestion and absorption.

Migrowin is a powerful food supplement that integrates the practices of modern medicine with traditional Ayurvedic remedies practiced for thousands of years in India.
