During the study, experts studied the eating habits of 170 women. They were divided into two groups – 85 people each. Most of the participants in the study were housewives, and only 13% were employed.
The results showed a significant association between headache and certain foods, including red meat, dairy products, various salad dressings and eggs.
“According to the results of the study, migraine without aura was recorded in 76.5% of subjects, and migraine with aura – in 23.5%,” – said in a statement.

Migraine with aura – a disease that is preceded by visual, auditory or sensory disorders – flickering lines in front of the eyes, numbness of various parts of the body and more.
Migraine without aura is called “classic”. Migraine without aura is manifested by throbbing pain at one point. It is not preceded by any visual, auditory or sensory disorders. Sometimes people do not even realize that it is a migraine, but think that they just have a headache.
With migraine without aura there are the following manifestations:
- five episodes of pain
- attacks last from 4 to 72 hours,
- throbbing pain, concentrated on one side of the head,
- with any physical activity the pain becomes stronger.
On the topic
Red meat – all types of meat (muscle tissue) of mammals, including beef, veal, pork, lamb, lamb, horse and goat.
The EU Commission warns that red meat increases the risk of cancer.
“The general view is that red and processed meat should be reduced or eliminated from the daily diet to prevent the incidence of cancer,” the updated European strategy said.
At the same time, nutritionists advise Ukrainians to change the traditional set for borscht and replace pork with other types of meat, as pork is not compatible with such common products as beets, carrots and potatoes.
