I used to get aura-style migraines. After following a yeast and wheat free diet my migraines went away. I started on the diet based on a small study as a way to suppress hidradenitis suppurativa symptoms. I’ve now been on this diet for 7 years and have not had a single migraine. It’s clear to me that the cause of migraines are inflammation, in my case caused by innate immunity (with a failure to down regulate) to fungi and 1,3, 1,6 beta glucans.
- berdon 5y agoI get aural migraines from Niacin and MSG. Most wheat based flour is enriched with Niacin. You might look into seeing if Niacin is your trigger and be able to eat wheat/yeast again.
