Juicing Remedy For Headaches

I recently posted about a book that came with my juicer called "Juice Alive: The Ultimate Guide to Juicing Remedies." The book has many remedies for many different health disorders. In this post I'm going to give a few  recipes that are listed in the book as remedies for headaches/migraines as well as the information about headaches and migraines that the book provides. 

Note: The following is taken directly from the 2nd edition printing of the book, as it appears on page 192. 

Headaches

Headaches rank among the most common of all health conditions, affecting nearly everyone at least once in their lives. In most cases, headaches are temporary, but in others, they can prove debilitating, depending on their type. Migraine headache is an example of this latter type of headache, as are headaches that continually recur or persist for long periods of time. Such headaches should be attended to by a physician, as should all cases of headaches that are accompanied by blurring vision, convulsions, dizziness, fever, and head trauma. 

There are many potential causes of headaches. These include physical factors, such as spinal misalignments, muscle spasms and muscle tension, and physical trauma or injury. Other potential causes of headache include allergies, constipation, poor diet, poor digestion, hormonal imbalances, infections and nutritional deficiencies. Juicing can often prove beneficial for headaches caused by this second class of factors due to the abundant supply of nutrients juices contain.
