Diet And Migraine
Some sufferers of migraine
headaches may find that relief is
spelled D-I-E-T! As many as
twenty-five percent of migraines
may be due to dietary factors. Con
trolling these migraines may be as
simple as eliminating certain foods
from the diet and changing food
habits.
A migraine is a periodic
headache noted for severe pain on
one side of the head, nausea,
dizziness, and other unpleasant
symptoms. It occurs when blood
vessels in the brain become tem
porarily over-enlarged. Scientists
believe that the disorder which
causes migraines is inherited . . .
but they don’t know exactly why it
occurs.
A migraine attack is thought to
be triggered by such factors as
stress, fatigue, exposure to bright
light, oral contraceptive use and
menstration... as well as diet.
Food may be involved by caus
ing an allergic reaction or by in
troducing chemicals into the body
that affect blood pressure.
Food is known to cause other
types of allergies ... for instance,
hives can be caused by strawber
ries. In the case of migraines, it is
simply the brain which becomes
the target of the allergy rather
than another part of the body. A
number of foods . . such as
chocolate, wheat, citrus fruits, tea,
and coffee, have been mentioned
as possibly causing allergy related
migraines. However, none have
been proven a cause of migraine,
and many scientists believe more
research should be done.

If you suffer from migraines and
feel that food may be a factor in
causing them . . . talk to your
allergist and a registered dietitian.
Migraine sufferers appear to vary
a great deal in their sensitivity to
foods and beverages. A dietitian
can help you identify specific foods
which may be causing a problem
instead of your trying to avoid a
long list of foods. That could cause
enough stress to bring the
migraines back!
ASPARTAME AND SACCHARIN
A WINNING COMBINATION
Team work is the key when it
comes to sweetening foods with
artificial sweeteners.
Until recently, saccharin has
been the most widely used low
calorie sweetener on the market.
But the new sweetener, aspar
tame, has now jomed saccharin on
the supermarket shelves.
These two sweeteners work well
together. Many diet sodas are
sweetened with a combination of
the two because the sweetness of
the two together is greater than the
sum of the sweetness of each in
dividually.

NORRISTOWN - The Mon

held August 16-18. One of the many
exciting activities to be held at the
fair will be a fun Olympics. This
event will begin at 3:30 p.m. on
The strengths of one sweetener
make up for the weaknesses of the
other. This results in products that
are better tasting and safer for
adults. These low-calorie products
are also less expensive to make.
In the 19605, saccharin and
cyclamate were used together and
resulted in diet products with less
aftertaste. But cyclamate was
removed from the market, leaving
sacchrin as the only low-calorie
sweetener sold.
With the development and ap
proval of aspartame, adults can
again enjoy products with little
aftertaste and few calories. The
safety of these artificial
sweeteners has not been confirmed
for young children and pregnant
women. These groups should exer
cise caution.
