- Vitamin Deficiency – Research from Cincinnati Children’s Medical Center discovered a link between migraine headaches and below average levels of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and riboflavin.
- Magnesium Deficiency – Migraine sufferers may develop magnesium deficiency from a variety of reasons, including poor absorption, renal wasting, and increased excretion due to stress or low nutritional intake.
