Is ginger your migraine ally—or a hidden trigger you’ve overlooked? While many migraine guides list ginger as a go-to remedy, the truth is more nuanced. In this episode, we explore how both Western science and Eastern medicine approach ginger—and what that means for your unique migraine profile.

What you’ll learn:

• The anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and pain-relieving powers of ginger—and when they help migraine sufferers.
• Why some people experience more migraines when using ginger—and how to know if you’re one of them.
• How Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda interpret ginger’s heating nature—and why it matters for your constitution, age, emotional patterns, and even fertility.
• When to use ginger safely, how to pair it with cooling herbs like chamomile, and when to avoid it completely(especially if you have migraines with aura or signs of “empty heat”).

Whether you swear by ginger or are unsure if it’s making things worse, this episode will help you understand how to personalize your approach—so you stop guessing and start healing.

For women, men, and children who suffer from migraine disease, Migraine Heroes is your go-to resource for understanding, managing, and overcoming migraine attacks.

We cover all types of migraines and related headaches, including primary and secondary migraines, chronic migraines, and cluster migraines. We dive deep into the complexities of migraine with aura and migraine without aura, as well as rarer forms like hemiplegic migraine, retinal migraine, and acephalgic migraine (silent migraine). Our discussions also extend to cervicogenic headaches, ice pick headaches, and pressure headaches, which often mimic migraine or contribute to overall migraine burden.
