I think Flintstones vitamins are helping my migraines
Edited on Sun Feb-27-05 07:38 PM by NormaR
I've been taking one a day every day with my daughter and I've had a lot fewer migraines. Adult vitamins did not have this effect.

Is that weird or what?

1. Yup weird
have you checked the vitamins and minerals in the Flintstone vitamins against the ones you used to take? I get migraines and believe that they are linked to low magnesium and certain B vitamins. Maybe the Flintstone vitamins have more magnesium and B vitamins.

3. Don't tell your insurance company....they'll stop paying
for Imitrex in favor of people purchasing Flinstone vitamins over the counter

4. vitamin C is important for veins and arteries flexibility...could that
affect migraine incidences? Maybe the children's C is more easily accepted into your system?

Migraines just suck.

Betty was added to all of our Flintstones formulas in December of 1995 and the Flintmobile was discontinued
