Magnesium Can Help Migraine Sufferers

Migraine can have many causes, but in most cases the magnesium level in the blood of migraine sufferers is far lower than normal, as was found out by researchers at the Medical University in Tabriz/Iran. The magnesium deficiency triggers a constriction of blood vessels in the brain. This constriction increases the sensibility of nerve cells to chemical messengers such as serotonin, thus triggering the migraine attacks.
Foods such as whole grains, green leafy vegetables, legumes and pulses as well as fish are good sources for magnesium.
The recommended daily intake for an adult is around 400 mg.

"Oil Swishing" is good for the gums ...

In Indian Ayurveda, oil swishing, i.e. rinsing the mouth with cold-pressed oils, is used to treat a variety of ailments. Wikipedia describes it as follows: "Oil pulling or oil swishing is a traditional Indian folk remedy that involves swishing oil in the mouth. It is mentioned in the Ayurvedic text Charaka Samhita where it is called Kavala Gandoosha or Kavala Graha. Ayurvedic literature describes oil pulling as capable of both improving oral health and treating systemic diseases such as diabetes mellitus or asthma. While scientific evidence is lacking to support any systemic benefits of oil pulling, some studies have suggested that it may reduce oral plaque, halitosis (bad breath) and gingivitis (inflammation of the gum tissue)."
Whereas the treatment of diabetes mellitus or asthma needs to be investigated further, the German Green Cross recommends to treat bleeding gums by slowly swishing 1-2 tablespoons of cold-pressed sunflower oil  around in your mouth for 15 minutes. After that, spit out the oil, rinse your mouth with warm water and then brush your teeth as usual. It is best to do this procedure regularly in the mornings, before breakfast. Doing the whole thing again in the evening, before bedtime, increases the benefits of the treatment. You will notice an improvement of your gum health after 1 to 2 weeks already.
