General:
Tension Headaches may be influenced by vascular tone, food hypersensitivity or other  causes.  It now appears that the initiation  may be caused or promoted by low levels of certain nutrients. Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) may reduce sensitivity of endothelial tissue in blood are implicated. (Note that Vitamin B2 is naturally intensely coloured and will become apparent in the urine). Magnesium is an essential co-factor for more than 300 enzymes. It appears to be vital to the health of every cell in the body. Magnesium deficiency adversely affects the bodyﾒs ability to carry oxygen in the blood. Low magnesium levels are associated with increased tissue irritability, promoting contraction of the smooth muscles in the lining of blood vessels.
