This is fascinating, I've suffered occasional migraines for 15 years, and while I've found over time that it's highly connected to my diet combined with other stressors (like intense exercise, lack of sleep, high stress, etc...), I've never seen the mechanism described so clearly as "a mismatch between the brain’s energy reserve and workload."

I wonder if the "migraine hangover" is also part of the brains process to "restore brain energy homeostasis" or is just an unfortunate side effect.
