Detox headaches.

StormWarrior

Every time I try to stop eating junk food, I get the most unbearable headaches that painkillers won't get rid of and that last for weeks. The only way to make them go away is to eat chocolate or takeaways or ready meals. When I try and quit the junk, I eat perfectly good stuff like chicken, veg, rice etc. But I always end up eating chocolate and takeaways again just to make the headaches go away. Does anyone have any tips for getting rid of the headaches without resorting to junk food?

Headaches are a know side effect of detoxing but not for weeks.

do you drink a lot of caffine (in all forms tea, coffee choc)and then give up?


How about phasing out food groups one at a time.
Start off ready meals, one/two weeks later take aways, one/two weeks later sweets & choc etc ....

Whats your daily water in take like? Stick up a weekly food log and you will get more help.

I usually drink between 1-3 pints of water a day. As for food, lots of eggs, some vegetables, lots of chicken and junk food like chocolate and takeaways.

Drink lots of water, I know people who get bad migraines and are on constant medication that does f**k all in my opinion. They started to drink lots of water and the migraines have now gone.
