A Fun Tip That Could Help You Get Rid of Your Headache

While I was doing the radiothon last week a sudden migraine came on. One of our listeners who was there when it happened shared his little boy's advice for a migraine.

A morning show listener named Bobby very seriously told me a story about how his little boy Justin (in elementary school) once saw Daddy on the floor with a migraine and, very innocently, ran to the kitchen and brought him back a box of Cheez-It's and told him to eat a couple.

Now of course this isn't science but, rather, it's love. Bobby ate the crackers his son brought him and his headache went away.

As Bobby was telling me this story, I realized I just happened to have a box of the Cheez-Its in my car (true!), so I thought I'd try it. Of course I threw in three Advil, drank a bottle of water, and put my sunglasses on so the bright lights wouldn't bother me (thanks to another listener's suggestion), but I do believe those Cheeze It's helped because within a half hour my migraine was gone!

Granted, I caught the migraine immediately, but maybe sometimes your body just needs a little snack...or love from your kid...to make things all better. So thank you, Justin, for a great suggestion!

Do you have any quirky remedies for a headache or migraine?
