This book is deceiving as it has many trigger foods in a lot of the recipes. The author is suppose to be an expert on migraines, if I am not mistaken, so I was surprised. There are a lot of recipes that include mushrooms, which have a naturally occurring form of msg, but these recipes are marked to not have msg. Glad I bought it used and did not spend much money on it, as I don’t think I will be using it much, if at all. The recipes that are free of my triggers are rather complex. People with migraines, especially people with chronic migraines like me, need more simple recipes, at least in my opinion. My advice is to save your money! Figure out your triggers, then just surf the net for different recipes. The Food Network has a lot of goo ones!

Easy to follow and elegant recipes that taste good. They do use a bit of garlic, which is a huge trigger for me, but all triggers are listed to the side of the recipe.

I am following the 1-2-3 Migraine Prevention diet (book “Heal your Headache, Buchholz). My entire lifestyle has changed since I have been on this diet (but have cut my migraines almost 80%!)and it has been extremely challenging to cut out all the migraine dietary triggers, so when I found this Migraine Cookbook, I thought it was going to make things a lot easier. However, I don’t think I can eat a single recipe in this book! The author even points many (not all) dietary triggers and still continues to use these ingredients in most/nearly all of her recipes. I am quite disappointed and do NOT recommend this book to others trying on this diet.

Although the recipes in the book look delicious, so many of them have ingredients that are migraine triggers. If you are trying to restrict all suspected triggers as I am, then you don’t want to make things with ANY possible triggers in them. There were some good recipes, but there were a lot that I wouldn’t use because they had some items considered triggers.
