Like many women, I have chronic headaches. I know my triggers: bright sunlight, squinting, certain smells…….but really the nasty ones come on when my hormones are in flux, and as this happens monthly, I’ve just come to accept it as inevitable. They’re pretty mean, and even ibuprofen doesn’t seem to help. In fact, I had never really encountered anything that offered lasting relief. Until……..
I keep trail mix in my car. It’s great to have as a snack so that I’m not forced into the emergency bag of Doritos at the gas station. It’s filling and, given that it’s good quality stuff, nutritious. I usually just buy it bulk at the natural food store, but I’ve grown a little tired of their offerings, so tried something totally new: Navitas Naturals Trail Power
I don’t know which ingredient is responsible for this, or whether it’s in the combination, but I have tested this effect several times, so I know that it’s definitely something in this mix. After trying everything (ok, everything save for the stuff from Big Pharma) for most of my adult life, I completely stumbled on this by accident. Maybe it will do the same for you!
