Can anyone share ideas for migraine diet or direct me to a website or book where I can get ideas and start planning a menu?
In Dr. Bucholz' book he gives some sample menu ideas but they are very limited and I am hoping to find maybe a bigger selection.

Also, is cinnamon allowed? I had to give up caffeine and I traded my morning coffee Crying in for cinnamon/apple herbal tea.

Thanks!

I don't see why cinnamon wouldn't be allowed, unless it was a trigger for you. I don't know of any specific books that address migraine diets. We all trigger so differently, so writing one sourcebook for all of us would be difficult, which is probably why there isn't much you've found so far.

One thing I am going to do is nudge this topic over to the healthy living folder, where I think it would fit better. Smiler

Headache Prevention Cookbook

I bought this recently and it is pretty good. My only two problems are 1) it is geard towards 4-6 servings and I live alone 2) it is written by doctors not chefs so the recipes require a little perking up I find.

Hope that helps a little!

You could also check out this book:

Tell Me What to Eat If I Have Headaches and Migraines

Some of the information in the first part of the book isn't exactly correct, but the food lists and recipes are helpful.
