Hello readers,
Vitamin D is proving to be very helpful in my battle against the Menstrual Migraines that have plagued me for so long!
I am having blood tests every 6 months, to check my vitamin D levels.
The level started off rather low, but I have been getting out in the sun (making sure I don't burn!), and taking supplements, and eating oily fish.
My level has since gone up and is getting there. Dr Stasha Gominak (linked to on a previous post) says that 60-80ng/ml seems to be the ideal level to ensure that the body repairs properly during sleep. My leve still has a little way to go before I'm in that golden zone, but I am certainly noticing benefits from the raised levels in the meantime.
- My Menstrual Migraines have significantly decreased, in fact during my most recent period, I did not have so much as a headache.
- My fingernails have started to really grow!!
- I have a bit more energy.
It's early days, after all, but I shall continue to post any progress as I go along.
Thanks to everyone that has posted comments, it's good to hear that my experiments have helped others!
Lou :)
