Who hasn't experienced those headaches that feel like their head is going to explode... a tension, pressure, and we don't even know exactly where it comes from or when it will go away.
Many times, headaches in women are associated with hormonal imbalances (what a surprise, huh?! Everything these days can be associated with hormonal imbalances...)
What we eat and the supplements we take can make all the difference! And it's better to be safe than sorry.
