Low Magnesium
Magnesium is an essential macro mineral that is very important for the proper functioning of many of the enzymes in the body. It plays a vital role in the metabolism of food, synthesis of fatty acids and proteins and the transmission of nerve impulses. Low magnesium will, therefore, result in spasm of the arteries which can occur in the brain. When this happens, quite severe migraine headaches develop. You can take magnesium supplements to increase the quantity of magnesium in your body. Also, you can get magnesium from foods rich in magnesium such as sunflower seeds, almonds, spinach, and shrimps.[10]
