If this list feels a little too familiar… you’re not alone!
A low migraine threshold means your brain is extra sensitive to triggers, stress, and life in general.
This doesn’t mean you’re stuck - because thankfully you can raise your threshold for migraine! Over time, this can reduce your body’s sensitivity to triggers to make migraine attacks less likely.
When you’re trying to improve your migraine threshold, it’s important to address your basic needs first before skipping to stuff like histamine intolerance or dysbiosis! That looks like:
➡️ Keeping blood sugar steady (not skipping meals, balanced macros)
➡️ Hydrating smartly (water + electrolytes)
➡️ Reducing obvious stressors (like intense exercise, wonky sleep schedules, pushing yourself too hard, drinking too much caffeine, etc etc)
➡️ Gently evaluating your mindset
➡️ Learning to speak your body’s language (without obsessing)
After that, a lot of people actually see some decent improvement! But if not, digging more into:
➡️ Nervous system hyperactivity
➡️ Microbiome imbalances
➡️ Hormone issues
➡️ Nutrient deficiencies
➡️ Poor digestion / metabolism
… can make a massive difference not only for migraine, but for conditions commonly experienced alongside it like dysautonomia, thyroid imbalances, and autoimmune conditions.
That’s because everything in the body really is connected!!
