No More Headaches:6 Surprising Headache Triggers

Headache? Could it be something you ateNot enough sleep? Want to know what could be causing it? Our comprehensive list just might help you out.
  • Dehydration
You don’t have to drink gallons of water to stay hydrated,
Eat more fruits and vegetables because you get all the other good things that come in it.  
  • Skipping Meals
Busy?? Take 10 to 15 minutes of your extreme tight schedules to fill you appetite. Hunger is a common headache trigger.
  • Your Bathroom Paint Job
It’s not just arguing over paint colors that can give you a headache; fumes from traditional paints can trigger pain. Many companies now make nearly odorless, low-VOC (volatile organic compound) formulas, like Benjamin Moore’s Natura line or Devoe’s Wonder Pure.
  • Your Personality
Certain traits, including rigidity, reserve, and obsessivity may make you headache-prone. If that sounds like you, it could be time to sign up for relaxation training.
  • The big O
46 percent of headache sufferers said sex had triggered a headache. Usually, this is an overexertion headache (like joggers and weight­lifters sometimes get); you may feel a dull pain that builds during foreplay or get a sudden headache around orgasm (more likely in men).

In rare cases, such an intense headache could be caused by a tumor or aneurysm. For most folks, though, sex headaches are harmless.
  • Your Weight
In a recent study, researchers found that women with a body mass index of 30 had a 35 percent greater risk of headaches than those with a lower BMI.
