Migraines hurt your heart, but help your head?

What do you want first: the good news or the bad? Well I can't hear you so we'll just start with the bad news: migraines may put you at increased risk for having a heart attack. And then the good news! Migraines may help boost your memory.    

The fact that migraines and heart disease are linked is not a completely new idea, although doctors and scientists are still trying to uncover if it's related to inflammation or genetics or what exactly. But the memory thing, well that's a surprise. Researchers originally went into the study, expecting to find that migraines caused cumulative brain damage over time, not brain protection.    

Just goes to show you never know what to expect.

Interesting read. Thanks for sharing. I used to have a ton of migraines when growing up. But when I got a bit older I discovered my medicine plants (cannabis & mushrooms). After starting to use cannabis regularly and mushrooms a few times a year I have not had any migraine attacks. The last time I got one was when I had a longer break from cannabis a few years ago, so they are for sure linked. Its good to see that more studies about migraines in general are popping up!
