I've found a quarter teaspoon of powdered ginger surprisingly effective for migraines. Don't take my word for it: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23657930

I've been taking high dose riboflavin (vitamin B2) at the recommendation of my neurologist for the last 4-5 months and it's been shockingly effective.

Almost the same with me. The neurologist did a blood test which showed a huge lack of vitamin B12 and Q10. High doses of both made a huge difference -> I feel way more fit and awake. The last time I had migraine was about 2 months ago. I'd get it up to 3 times a week previously. Plus while trying to find out the cause for my migraines I encountered coffee to be a trigger. I stopped consuming caffeine in general as well.

Thanks for this, I'll try this next time I feel one coming on (assuming I'm at home and can get to some powdered ginger)!

I can't imagine how it is to eat powdered ginger given how a piece of solid ginger tastes like

You can make (rather strong) tea from it, i saw it even being sold in supermarkets straight in tea bags. Add some lemon and honey and it is delicious and great for those long winter evenings

I've packed it inside empty capsules before to make it more palatable.

I've heard often that sea salt mixed with lemon juice helps, wonders of home medicine

I wonder if natural ginger ale could have a prophylactic effect when drank at lunch each day. That would be a super thing if it did — and safe for pretty much anyone.

If you can, add 1/4 tsp tumeric powder and black pepper as well. I’m basically declaring war on all inflammatory foods/factors.

Exactly! The black pepper has a bioavaibility enhancer called piperine which ensure that you absorb more of the curcumin as well. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9619120
