Migraine disorders can be linked with magnesium deficiency, making supplementation of magnesium for migraine necessary for most of us. However, if you’re finding that you have more digestive “issues” when upping your magnesium intake, you’re not alone. So which magnesium was best for me? I had to do some research to find out!
Dr. David Buchholz from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine is the author and he is endorsed by many of the top migraine doctors like Robert B. Daroff from the American Headache Society and Ronald J. Tusa from the Dizziness and Balance Center at Emory University. In the book he gives a plethora of helpful information you won't necessarily get from your personal physician. This isn’t just a book about headaches, it’s a thorough overview of all types of migraine.
What's the best type of magnesium for migraine? Truthfully I can't answer that. Because what works well for me for vestibular migraine prevention and acute treatment may not work for you. I recommend reading through the different types and deciding what might work best for the issues you have.

I would personally pair this with a simple Air Fryer Flank Steak, seared salmon or Shrimp Stuffed Salmon, or with my Creamy Rosemary Chicken. It would also be awesome for Thanksgiving or Christmas with turkey or a Whole Roast Chicken.
