A Resource About Headache Handbook ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Headaches are no jokes, just ask the person that has one. More than 45 million Americans suffer from headaches severe enough to require treatment from a physician. Of these, 16 to 18 million are sufferers from migraine headaches. When headaches are getting you down, interfering with your life and work, it is time to consult your physician. It is also important to understand the many kinds of headache that can attack any of us, and that information is included in a booklet "The Headache Handbook" which is being offered to my readers without charge. It contains descriptions of the types of headaches that may occur, and a discussion of migraine headaches specifically. You may obtain your free copy by sending your request, with a stamped, self addressed envelope directly to the National Headache Foundation, 5252 N. Western Avenue, Chicago, IL 60625. You may also request and receive the migraine diet, developed by Dr. Seymour Diamond, Director of the Diamond Headache Clinic. It is based on the restriction of a chemical called tyramine, which has been found to cause these aggravating, and distressful headaches. All the food classifications are included and both the foods you may eat as well as foods to avoid are listed. Here's real help for headache sufferers. ---------------- The material contained here is "FOR INFORMATION ONLY" and should not replace the counsel and advice of your personal physician. Promptly consulting your doctor is the best path to a quick and successful resolution of any medical problem.
