Common Diseases
Migraines
Migraines
have been associated with brain
edema. When the brain develops edema
it has decreased levels of oxygen and
sugar, which the brain needs to
function. Migraine triggers are
simply any stimulus that activates
the brain, further increasing a
congested brain’s requirement
for oxygen and sugar. To receive
these nutrients, the brain must
increase its blood circulation. It
does this by opening up, or dilating,
the arteries to the brain and within
the brain, slowly flushing out the
congested brain tissue. This causes
temporarily elevated brain pressure
and pain, which is the migraine. Once
the brain is flushed, the arteries
return to normal. This means that a
migraine may be a natural and healthy
autoregulatory response of the brain
to relieve itself of edema, which was
created by lying down too flat for
too long
They
called you a "migraineur".
They labeled you incurable, and did
no more than send you to the
drugstore for increasingly expensive
drugs, drugs that only helped you get
through the current torture, but
never offered permanent relief. You
prayed for a cure, for the storm
cloud in your life to finally pass.
Well, your prayers are being
answered. We believe that we have
discovered the cause and cure for
migraines. In fact, the same
lifestyle that causes migraines also
may be causing glaucoma, sleep apnea,
strokes, and more. When we
tested our theory on lifelong
migraine sufferers, over 70%
experienced relief. Free at last!
Now you can try it for yourself.
Smile. You may have already had your
last migraine!
Gravity plays
an important role in the circulation
of the brain. When your head is down,
it gets extra pressure because of
gravity. When your head is up,
gravity helps drain the brain and
resist the pressure of blood pumping
up from the heart to the head. Our
culture tells us that sleeping on a
flat bed is normal and should cause
no problems. That is incorrect. Flat
sleeping causes brain congestion and
pressure.
Increased pressure in the head can
lead to fluid accumulation within the
tissues, resulting in a congestion
condition called edema. If you
have a puffy face in the morning,
with sinus congestion and baggy eyes,
it is a sign of facial edema. If your
face has edema, then so does your
brain.
Tissues that have edema are low in
oxygen and sugar, which the brain
desperately needs to function. Over
time, edema leads to tissue
dysfunction and degeneration. Brain
edema has been associated with many
brain conditions, although the cause
of the edema has usually been
considered unknown, since the
relationship between sleep position
and gravity's effect on the brain has
been ignored.
It is known that slight head
elevation is an effective treatment
for brain edema, and lowering the
head is known to cause brain
edema.
We believe that sleeping too flat for
too long, perhaps for 8-12 hours
daily, day after day, year after
year, can lead to chronic edema of
the brain. This effect of sleep
position has been ignored in brain
research because of the cultural
assumption that flat sleeping is
normal and therefore unable to harm
us.
What conditions are caused by chronic
brain edema in any particular person
depends on many factors. All of these
conditions, however, may be
preventable and treatable with the
same "Lifestyle Change",
since they may stem from the same
lifestyle cause. These include
Migraines, Sleep Apnea, and Glaucoma.

Comments:
Other known causes of
migraines are environmental factors,
chemical poisoning, food allergies.
Also spinal imbalance, digestive and
respiratory problems, interpersonal
and social stresses. One of the first
treatments is to drink lots of water.
