Bananas
Bananas are a convenient snack offering quick energy recovery and are rich in magnesium, a mineral known to benefit individuals experiencing headaches. With about 74% water content, bananas also contribute to hydration. Magnesium plays a critical role in various bodily functions, including muscle and nerve function, which could help mitigate the occurrence of migraines.
Bananas are also packed with potassium, which is essential for maintaining electrolyte balance and proper nerve function.
