Food and diet are talked about often in the vestibular world—especially with vestibular migraine (VM).
People often wonder if they have food sensitivities, if they should be going on a migraine diet, if they have to go on a diet, or—if they have been on it—how to get back into exploring other food options.
Let’s skip to the important part → There is no one size fits all answer for this!
