MIGRAINE BE GONE GREEN JUICE RECIPE
You can aid and possibly prevent a migraine headache with this Migraine Cure green juice recipe.
With over 37 million people in the US alone, either you or someone you love probably suffers from this mind bending pain.
It’s almost impossible to function when a migraine headache attacks, but you don’t miss more work or school!
This Migraine Cure green juice recipe contains 3 of the top 6 best foods for curing headaches, so it’s no wonder this natural remedy has been touted to cure a more intensive migraine!
You can omit the water and ice and extract the ingredients like our friends at FitLife.TV do with a juicer, which of course doesn’t require any digestion of the body and will immediately absorb into your system, however we like to make it a whole food juice by keeping the fiber.
It’s up to you!

Absolutely! The ingredients in this green juice, like pineapple, cucumber, and ginger, have natural properties known to alleviate migraine symptoms.

While individual results may vary, incorporating this green juice into your regular diet can help prevent migraines and provide relief when they occur.

i’m so happy i ran across your site. i get migraines every once in a while and i’m really excited to try this the next time i feel one coming on. i’m also really excited to browse your other recipes. thank you!
Welcome Andrea! Happy to have you part of our community. 🙂 HAPPY BLENDING!
I try this recipe for about 2 weeks now drinking daily but my migraine & headache didn’t go away. I never eat kale before, I was hesitated about it first but after drinking the juice for the second time, it was not bad. I enjoy drinking the juice & thanks for the recipe.
So glad you enjoy the recipe. Be careful not use the same greens (kale) everyday as it may cause a build up of toxins. Perhaps try some of the other juice recipes on the site and add turmeric. Turmeric is what will reduce the swelling and help relieve your headache.
Thank you, I will try other juice recipes. 🙂
Hi BlenderBabes!
I will definitely try this!! Suffer from daily headaches and migraines.
Can I keep it in the refrigerator and for how long?
Thanks 🙂
Great Lene! Welcome! Yes you can keep smoothies in the fridge for up to 24 hours (before it starts getting icky texture, and loses nutrition rapidly) or you can freeze it for up to 3 months. HAPPY BLENDING!
I was just wondering if anyone else suffered from diarrhoea after drinking this recipe? It worked great on my headache but I was then up all night in the bathroom and have been having cramps for about 9 hours now. I was just wondering if this had happened to anyone else or if you had some suggestions on how I could get the benefits of the juice without the upset sore tummy after.
Interesting Bec, we haven’t heard any feedback for this recipe. However we have heard of people experiencing detox side effects when they start drinking fiber rich green juices and smoothies. Are you a regular green juice (whole juice from a blender) or green smoothie drinker? I’m so sorry you experienced such pain and cramping! I suffer from IBS and have definitely felt your pain, but it’s usually after eating stuff I shouldn’t be… I would recommend talking to your physician and seeing what he has to say about it.
Perhaps you can make the juice WITHOUT the fiber and see if it still has the same effect. You can staring it through a nut milk bag out of the blender, or use an actual juice extractor.
I suffer from migraines …and also was diagnosed with ms- multiple sclerosis.. I’ve had a migraine for the last 2 in half days ..went to doctors and they gave pain killers and pills for migraine
one more thing… how often can you drink this? can i drink it daily to prevent migraines? might be a silly question, but this will also be my first home made smoothie.

Sorry to hear about your migraines Ran! You can definitely make this as much as you want. I would even use it as preventative. 🙂 Keep us posted how it works! 🙂 HAPPY BLENDING!
I am leaving to the grocery store now for these ingrediants . i suffer from migraines at least 2 to 3 times a month for 4 days at a time…. currently having one now. i have no idea what else to try… so here we go.
praying this works.
Did this work?
I just tried this for the first time. If it works, it will be my favorite new drink! Thank you for sharing 🙂
Can I put the ingredients in my juicer instead of a blender.
Hi Phillip and welcome to Blender Babes! You could try this as a juice, but you’d miss out on a lot of the fiber. If you try it, please let us know how it is!!
Hope this helps
Hope this helps
i haven’t tried this yet just received it today from my sister. she knows how severe my migraine’s are. I’ve suffer from migraine for 35 yrs , I’ve try everything you can imagine. hope this work, will keep you posted.
what is good for severe acid re flux, my partner suffers from this.
thk you
Yes please keep us posted! For acid reflux we have heard others recommend any recipe with ginger in it. 🙂 Hope that helps!
Try eating an apple at the onset of acid reflux and daily. The Apple neutralizes the acid. It works for me.
Awesome Anita! Thanks for sharing, we will try the apple remedy XOXO
You are fantastic to have figured out this recipe. I know several people that have migraines and have heard turmeric and ginger were effective. Hydration can also be a big problem. Can’t wait to pass on the idea about the pineapple. I imagine this smoothie will help with a lot more than migraines with all the nutrients and antioxidants in it. Thanks for sharing.

Do we need celery??
Hi, Erin, and WELCOME to Blender Babes!! You don’t HAVE to add the celery, but it does have some vital vitamins and nutrients that will help battle your migraines. Try it at least once with celery to see if it helps your headache; otherwise, feel free to make it without the celery!
Good morning! Can you use ground ginger instead and if so, how much?
Fresh ginger’s health benefits are dramatically increased when using fresh ginger, and it is relatively easy to find in most areas. However, in a pinch, you’ll need about 1 teaspoon of ground ginger for every 1 tablespoon of fresh ginger. Hope that helps and ENJOY!
