Can you give me any tips for dealing with hunger headaches?
Sometimes, when I am hungry, instead of my stomach rumbling or my just feeling hungry, I start to feel weak and get these monster headaches. I know they are from hunger because when I eat, they go away. However, often, the only way to get rid of them right away is to eat a lot in a short amount of time. I don’t like doing this because I am trying to get in shape and because I end up feeling a little sick because I’ve eaten too much.
I am definitely eating enough and I have a varied enough diet that it’s unlikely that my body is craving specific nutrients. I also cannot stop the headaches with traditional headache remedies. I have tried ibuprofen, drinking a lot of water, taking a nap, putting the computer away and even walking around with a bag of frozen peas on my head but nothing, aside from eating a lot in a small amount of time, seems to help. Can the collective suggest something I haven’t tried?
