Black Beans
Reactive hypoglycemia is a possible cause of migraines and headaches. It occurs when the blood sugar level drops after consuming certain kinds of foods. If you notice persistent symptoms that become worse after an extended period without food or start right after a meal, try to eat complex carbs that would help stabilize your blood sugar. Apart from whole grains and root veggies, black beans can be a great source of carbs. They have a low glycemic index, which means your blood sugar level will be increased to a small to moderate amount after a meal. On the other hand, if you consume highly processed food or white rice, it may increase blood sugar levels very quickly. [5]
