Studies have shown that excessive consumption of caffeinated beverages, such as coffee, increases the likelihood of migraine headaches. [사진=게티이미지뱅크]Migraine, which makes us feel uncomfortable, is a common neurological disease and at the same time, it is a disease that interferes with many people’s daily lives. Although the cause has not been clearly identified yet, unexpected triggering factors are being revealed through research results.
▲ What is a migraine?
Migraine refers to a headache that appears only on one side of the head, and refers to a characteristic headache in which unilateral, throbbing pain lasts for a certain period of time, symptoms of nausea and vomiting, and phobia of light and sound appear. Migraine has many differences in prevalence according to age and gender, but it occurs mostly in young adult women. Because migraines show moderate to severe intensity, about 80% of migraine sufferers interfere with daily life due to headaches.
Unexpected causes of migraines
Migraines can appear at any time of day regardless of the season, but they can also appear frequently, especially in summer when exposed to strong sunlight for a long time or when the temperature difference between indoors and outdoors is high. When we go to a room where the air conditioner is turned on after doing outdoor activities with high temperatures, the temperature difference that our body feels increases. At this time, as blood vessels around the head repeatedly contract and expand, migraine headaches may occur or the pain may become more severe.
It can also be caused by unexpectedly bright light. Some people experience ‘photophobia’, an abnormal or extreme hypersensitivity reaction to light. there is.
It can also be caused by certain foods (especially red wine and foods containing certain cheeses, such as pizza) or medications. There is also a study that consistently excessive consumption of caffeinated beverages such as coffee increases the likelihood of migraines, and hormonal changes and weather changes are also important triggers.
In addition, it can also affect the brain nervous system, such as constant tension, stress, or lack of sleep, and various toxic stimuli, including pain in muscles damaged by excessive tension, excite the brain nervous system and cause migraine. It can also be an important cause for sensitive women who lack exercise overall and have a lot of stress. Among people who lead a regular life, the possibility of migraine headaches increases when life rhythms suddenly change, such as those who often drink coffee to maintain tension and oversleep on weekends. If you don’t drink coffee that you usually drink because of the withdrawal phenomenon of caffeine, which is highly addictive, the possibility of triggering a migraine increases.
