Study shows link between vitamin D status and headaches
28 September 2012
Research published in the journal Headache reports an association between low vitamin D status and headaches.

Past researchers have described an increasing incidence of both migraine and non-migraine headaches with increasing latitude, implying an association with vitamin D status. Since the vitamin D receptor is widespread in the brain, a link between D levels and headache has been previously speculated.
