Over 30 million people across North America suffer from migraine headaches. Some use medications to dull the ache, while others choose to simply bear the pain. Over the years, a number of drugs have been developed to treat migraines; however, these treatments don't work for everyone. Furthermore, they come with a high risk of dangerous side effects. Fortunately, Dr. Jay S. Cohen--physician, medical researcher, and professor of medicine--has discovered an alternative. Magnesium, an effective drug-free option, offers a proven way to not only prevent migraines, but also stop them in their tracks.

The Magnesium Solution for Migraine Headaches is a direct result of Dr. Cohen's research. This concise easy-to-understand guide explains what a migraine is; details how magnesium relaxes the nerves and blood vessels involved in migraines; and shows how this supplement can play a key role in preventing and treating migraine headaches. The book also describes why magnesium is as effective as drugs, as well as safer and less expensive; what type of magnesium works best; and how much magnesium should be taken to prevent or stop migraines. All of the information is backed by relevant scientific studies and interviews with leading experts in the field.

For those who are looking for a safe and effective approach to the prevention and treatment of migraine and cluster headaches, Dr. Cohen prescribes a proven natural remedy in The Magnesium Solution for Migraine Headaches.

Jay S. Cohen, MD is an associate professor of family and preventive medicine at the University of California, San Diego. He has published numerous research articles, as well as articles in Newsweek, Life Extension magazine, and Bottom Line Health, and is also the author of Over Dose: The Case Against the Drug Companies. Dr. Cohen and his family live in Del Mar, California.
