Detection of Possible Trigger Nutrition Factors in Migraine Patients with Alternating Diet Model
Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study is to determine the effects of diet programs on the severity and duration of migraines and the number of attacks by administering cheese, caffeine, and chocolate-restricted diet programs to patients. Material and Methods: The migraine patients included in the study were given three different (chocolate-free, cheese-free, caffeine-free) dietary recommendations and were given a chart in which they could record their migraine attacks. The dietary recommendations were administered separately every two weeks. The chart filled out by the patients was collected through face-to-face interviews at the end of the total 6 weeks. Results: The study determined a decrease in the duration, severity, and number of migraine attacks in the period of a diet free from cheese, caffeine, and chocolate. Except for the decrease in the number of attacks on the caffeine-free diet, all the decreases are statistically significant. Conclusion: This study shows that using a cheese-free, chocolate-free, or caffeine-free diet in managing migraine patients may improve the quality of life, and the need for drug treatment may decrease.
