Cut Your Headaches Off At the Pass.
Here are a couple of quick health tips to help you
relieve your headaches naturally, without the use of over-the-counter drugs or prescription
medications.
Note: Persistent headaches may indicate a serious
health condition, and require you to see a physician.
However, if you are experiecing mild, occassional headaches, these
tips may prove beneficial to you. Use your own discretion!
1. Drink more water to prevent
headaches!
As simple
as this sounds, many people complaining of low-grade, dull-pain headaches are simply not
drinking enough water, and are experiencing the effects of de-hydration.
To fix this--drink about 6-8 (eight ounce) glasses of water
each day.
This number is approximate, and you'll need to adjust
according to your activity level and so on.
If you are suffering headaches from lack of water, increasing your
water intake may prove helpful in decreasing your headaches, and will produce results within 30
minutes..
2. The banana peel remedy for
headaches!
As odd as this one sounds, many
people swear that it works for them.
Give it a try and see how it does for you....you'll need one
banana for this quick headache remedy.
-
Peel one banana, dividing the peel into two equal pieces, as best
you can. You can eat or save the fruit. You should have two equally sized pieces of banana
peel.
-
Next, place one of the banana peels across the back of
your neck, with the fruit-side of the peel placed against your skin.
-
Lastly, place the remaining peel across your forehead and
temples--again, fruit-side of the peel is in contact with your skin.
-
You can now lie down and relax for 10-15 minutes--and
wait for your headache to disappear.
If this one works for you, be sure to let us know--we love to hear
your feedback!
