Headaches and migraines can efficiently ruin your day and make it hard to do even basic tasks. Turning to painkillers might seem like the easiest way to deal with the issue but it doesn’t have to be the only one. There is one alternative that the internet is raving about that could help in alleviating headaches and migraines in a completely natural way.

Miracle Cure

This green smoothie consisting out of kale, celery, cucumbers, pineapples, lemon juice, and ginger root emerged as one of the preferred choices for people dealing with headaches and migraines. As DHerbs points out, the consummation of leafy greens like kale and celery helps lowering cortisol levels in the body thanks to being a rich source of magnesium. The high levels of cortisol are scientifically proven to lead to severe migraines and headaches, among other things. Pineapple, on the other hand, has pain-relief and anti-inflammatory properties due to its natural enzyme bromelain.

It is important to note that this smoothie might not help everyone, but it is definitely worth trying. Here’s how to make it.
