L- Tryptophan works wonders

Hi Guys.

As some of you know, i have been experiencing cluster, right sided migraines frequently. I have had them everyday for months, along with nausea.

I recently decided to start using L-Tryptophan, an amino acid, to help calm my mood. If you look it up, it helps a long list of problems, including facial pain

Imagine how shocked I was, when it got rid of my migraine!

I stopped taking it one day and I felt a headache, but not migraine.

Apparently, L-Tryptophan, is essential for the body and is found in food or supplements. I was probably lacking.

Worth a try. Please let me know if anyone finds this useful.
