Migraine Prevention

RESTORE ME BENEFITS :

The various ingredients found in Restore Me can support the prevention of Migraine headaches.* A basic understanding of several biochemical, metabolic processes can better demonstrate the value of these micronutrients and vitamins.

Supplements for Migraines

Value and Efficacy is understood in 4 ways:

  • The quality of the ingredients being ingested
  • An understanding of the impact of the MTHFR mutation in the general population
  • The importance of the right methylfolate
  • B vitamins allowing critical metabolic systems to operate more efficient

NATURAL TREATMENT OF MIGRAINES

A WHOLISTIC APPROACH TO MIGRAINE CAUSE

Each individual has their own unique history and genetic makeup. A genetic test to determine if you have the MTHFR mutation and if so, which one(s) can be very helpful in determining a more personalized plan of action. Restore Me is designed to help consumers with or without that knowledge. One doesn’t have to have a MTHFR mutation to have a deficiency of a vitamin. Restore Me has the necessary vitamins and minerals you need to influence and maintain key biochemical functions of your body..

Impact of the MTHFR Mutation:

Some migraines can be traced back to a genetic explanation or root cause. To understand how this works, a simple understanding of why folate is important in your diet and supplementation will become more apparent. So, we will look at the two together: folate and its importance within your diet and what happens when a genetic mutation interferes with the capacity of your body’s metabolic system to break it down into useable parts.

NOTE: Folic acid requires several activation steps before it can be used by cells. The Bioactive supplement, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF), is equivalent to the active form of folate used by the body. Unlike ordinary folic acid supplements, it is unaffected by the MTHFR variant genotype and requires no conversion or activation. METHYLFOLATE DIAGRAM

ADVANTAGES OF BIOACTIVE FOLATE (5- MTHF)

Folate is found naturally in foods and folic acid is a common additive found not only in many foods but also many supplements. At the molecular level, both the natural folate and the folic acid must be converted into the usable form of folate called methylfolate. A by-product of this successful chemical conversion is that the methylfolate engages and allows the brain cells to function normally which reduces headaches while contributing to the cellular health of many other body systems. Folic acid is a form of vitamin B9.
Somewhere between 30-45% of the population have a mutated MTHFR gene. These mutations affect every person differently leading to different gradients of symptoms. The MTHFR gene is responsible for converting vitamin B9 (folic acid) into the more usable form, methyfolate. Those persons with this mutated gene will produce 30 to 70% less methyl-folate. If either parent or grandparents suffered from migraines and you do too, chances are all of you have or had this mutation. It is estimated that 1-3% of persons with this mutated gene will produce significantly less methyl-folate which can lead to varying degrees of healthcare problems. If either parent or grandparents suffered from migraines and you do too, chances are these migraines are genetically “programmed” to you. When MTHFR mutations are more disruptive, migraines can be one of the resulting healthcare problems.

Magnesium and vitamin B deficiencies, melatonin imbalances, gluten allergies, and hormonal imbalances can all contribute to migraines. Restore me contains the essential vitamins and supplements that lessen the severity and frequency of your migraines or frequent headaches.
