Headaches are caused by congestion in the system, and often it is possible to determine the location of the congestion, by the characteristics of the headache.

Pressure in the temples and forehead, usually indicates that there is tension in the stomach, adn throbbing pain oftern results form congestion in the liver, spleen, or digestive tract. Migraine headaches are caused by excess starches and sugars in the diet. Foods eaten too quickly or diluted with liquids, will create gas and putirfication in the stomach, whcih can cause a headache. When an internal organ is congested, it will send signals to the brain which are interpreted as pain in the head, rather than pain form the organ.

Tension is the most common cause of headaches, whether directly by affecting the brain itself, or indireclty by contributing to the congestion in the system.

Migraine headaches, are a direct result of improper diet. Consumption of devitalized foods make it difficult for the body to eliminate wastes effectively.

A three day cleansing fast and subsequent diet of raw vegetables and other nutritous foods, will bring releif from migraine headaches and help too prevent their reocurrance

I have used a quick bypass for ridding oneself of a bad diet induced headache, is to eat 1-4 pearls of raw garlic. Garlic can clean the blood of toxins, within 1 hour. When one has taken too much of starch/sugar based foods, one can also negate the effects by eating some high protein foods, and/or exercising.

Massaging an accupuncture point on the outside of corner of the eyes will releive pain from headaches, using rubbing or circular motion, but not applying pressure from the back of the head, toward the front.

Echinacea has benefited toxic headaches with vertigo and a confused mental state when this condition is caused by an accumulation of systemic toxins.
