Diet and hydration levels play a major role in the prevention of headaches. A gluten-free diet high in B-vitamins has been shown to help as headaches are common symptoms of inflammatory foods and dehydration. According to a study conducted by the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, a water-deprivation headache may cause head pain as well as impaired concentration and irritability. Taking a B-vitamin complex and drinking lots of water may reduce headaches. Also be sure to opt for unprocessed, unrefined carbohydrates such as legumes, fruits, and vegetables over gluten, refined sugar, and wheat.
