[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Have you ever had a migraine headache?

[@Borreguita89]

Bumblebee Apothecary happy to report I haven’t

[@SecretplaceintheGlory]

I get them monthly, around that time of month. I will try this. I know I feel a LOT better right after I eat liver lately.

[@pumsandhu4280]

Chronic migraines

[@christinam.3410]

At least twice a week ...

[@SpearsM2]

I’m so glad I came across your video! I have had migraines since I was 13. It’s not the way of life! You can’t function! I have seen many doctors and tons of medications and treatments. The last medication I was taking it was working but had a hit on my eyesight… unfortunately this is one of the major side effects. Last week I was just put on new medication. I will try this for sure!

[@a.m.7286]

I’m so grateful I came across your channel! Just started the GAPS diet and it’s kicking my butt. Your content makes everything so clear and simple to follow ❤️

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Oh I'm so glad! This is what I want most, to help make this doable for others. Thank you so much! ❤️

[@mikemcclernon5784]

This channel is a mere fractal, of how easily health can be attained, today!

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

It's so true!! I want to spread the word.

[@Aquarian_83]

Agree. Too many just trust the doctor....

[@hrh4773]

Wow! I have never heard of this. I have suffered from chronic migraines all my life but I wasn’t diagnosed until I was 50 years old. I will have to look into this and check with my doctor. Thanks so much.

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Sorry to hear that, I hope you get relief!

[@mattyeffinmorison9558]

How’d you go?

[@miggystoon7892]

How did this go?

[@kmama6469]

Please do a video on MTHFR! I have this and would LOVE to learn how to deal with it from a natural perspective. Just found your channel after hearing you on Lisa’s podcast. 😊

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

I will add that to my list of videos to do! Thank you! Yay, I'm glad you're here :)

[@darrenwilson3220]

Would love to see a video about MTHFR from the GAPS perspective as well as Pernicious Anemia/Low B12 affecting the nerves and heart and how to treat it without needed the b12 injections 😊 Thank you!

[@matthewjogden]

Thanks you for your Infomation. I’ll defiantly try that.

[@solveigshome7813]

Just happened upon your video with the raw beef liver vitamin stopping your migraines and was thrilled. Where do you get them? My wife has been having two migraines a week and yesterday was the worst one I've seen her have. Thanks very much. Steve

[@angelab412]

I will try and hope it will work! I have tried everything like you said, also acupuncture, quiropract sessions and more…

[@lena1122]

Thank you! I will start today!! 🙏

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

You're welcome!

[@Merzui-kg8ds]

What type of magnesium did you use when you thought it might work for migraine?

[@sudanbabe]

I started struggling with migraines after giving birth to my second son last March, I’m currently pregnant again and they’ve eased up. However I want to be prepared in case they come back. Thanks for the video

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Sorry to hear about the migraines :( Congrats on your pregnancy! I hope this helps!

[@ownitaccounting4677]

Your talking voice is so soothing!

[@tanyaschlepp]

Hi Marisa~ Please do the MTHFR informational video. I have the gene mutation. Would love to know more. Thanks Tanya

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Okay, I will! Thanks for the request!

[@gabriellafaithmckenzie]

I started getting migraines after I had my first child. I get them once a month or 1 every couple of months. It just depends… I quit caffeine and that has helped a lot but I need to switch my diet entirely. Thanks for this video!

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

You're very welcome! The GAPS diet and then focusing a lot on liver support is what finally helped me get rid of them for good. Sending well wishes!

[@petebeat1510]

Dude it's still early days I have tried so many different strategies to try beat my migranes, I bought some beef liver capsuals online and since I have been taking them I have not had a headache of migraine! It has been 2 weeks and I'm sure I should have had one by now. I am really hoping that this has hit it on the head.. I have been suffering from migraines my whole life 32 years! I would suggest anybody reading this to give it a try!

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Thanks for sharing! Hope it works as well for you as it did for me!

[@monicawoodcock4839]

Please do a video on MTHFR! I have a double copy of a gene mutation and I’d love to hear what you have to say about it because it can be kind of hard to understand!

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Alright, I'll do it! Thanks! :)

[@ellencarnes9956]

Pathogens? Well that just scared me. Always suffered from headaches and migraines but now it's daily since menopause 😭. I live on Excedrin and prescription migraine meds. Would love relief.

[@elizabethmarquez3721]

How do you get them?

[@Nicole-xx8js]

What brand of raw beef liver do you buy?

[@johnruckman2320]

My sister gets migraine headaches. She's 68. You mention taking iron in the form of liver meat. I've heard of iron overload and that men don't need as much iron as women. Does that change after menopause? What associated vitamins and minerals are necessary to metabolize iron? Magnesium deficiency is also associated with a lot of health problems. I'm wondering if too little amino acid might also be a contributor?

[@wellnessconsultationsforwo5269]

Love this Marisa❤️ I do the raw liver smoothies...Yum!

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Oh that's awesome! I'm glad I was brave and went ahead and shared this - I'm find there are more of my "people" out there than I realized! Thank you :)

[@mitzimeyer2928]

I would love to hear information on the MTHFR gene mutation. I have had migraines in the past and am not having them currently but very curious about this connection.

[@kayleewelt2236]

How do you travel with them?

[@SecretplaceintheGlory]

Ever heard of Gilbert's Syndrome? I believe it is somewhat related to the MTHFR mutation as it is also a gene mutation. I basically am lacking an enzyme in my liver which helps me to detoxify environmental toxins. It improved greatly after I found the Nourishing Traditions cookbook and now I am using the GAPS for my little ones. I do tend to stay away from pork still, however, due to the parasite issues they seem to have. Do you have any issues with pork on the GAPS diet?

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Very interesting, thanks for sharing! I hadn't heard of Gilbert's Syndrome. We haven't had any issues with pork on GAPS, but I know of others who choose to avoid it for that reason.

[@Godwinsjc]

Just found this do you still do this I have bad migraines did many things and still get them , it’s better but still get them♥️

[@leylomalene]

Thank your so much for this🙏

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

You're welcome! I hope it helps you like it has me!

[@sarisylvander8219]

Thank you for a good video! Really interesting and helpfull information. I'd like to try this for my migraines to, I just have to find that liver first (here in Sweden)! :)

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

You're welcome! I hope it helps you like it has me!

[@mattandcatherine5302]

I started taking raw beef liver capsules recently... It has changed my life!!

[@panicosvasiliou4914]

In what way did it change your life? Please elaborate.

[@AdrianaCastroDesign]

I am so tired of migranes I am up to try anything at this point. Thanks!

[@miggystoon7892]

Did you try this? I'm struggling with migraines

[@kellys7018]

Have you ever tried beef liver pills? There are a few different brands on the market now. I wonder if they would/wouldn’t be as effective as the raw.

[@blackriflehomestead]

Do you think the same effect could be had against migraines if taking dessicated beef liver capsules?

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Yes, but you might have to take quite a lot of them, and you'd have to make sure they are truly raw :)

[@justin_mariaheverett9868]

Recently diagnosed with complex migraine which mimics stroke symptoms. Trying to find relief 😓

[@lacybenkley9501]

I have the MTHFR gene mutation and struggle with vestibular migraines. I take a myriad of supplements to prevent them but am always unbalanced. I just freeze dried some elk liver and have ordered the supplies to make capsules. I can’t wait to try them to see if I can go off the handful of supplements I take. Thank you for sharing!!

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

You're welcome :)

[@ehtozedduo2029]

So interesting!!

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Thanks! :)

[@sailstomars]

Oh yes. I started getting them 2-3 times a year two years ago. I had one yesterday and ended up in the hospital from severe migraine and vomiting every 10 min for 3 hours with no water/food retention.. My migraines stem from stress, depression and in turn I start to eat less healthy, stop taking supplements and then an emotional trigger happens and i cry a lot and bam! severe migraine. So things compounding. Working on natural preventions, healing my gut, stress free day - to - day, yoga, nature, walking with the pup and trying to be easy on myself. I am vegan. When I eat very processed things it doesnt help too, but if i stick to organic local veggies and low processed I feel great. I will never take liver or animal products , i hope the life changes im making will help.

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Thanks for sharing! I hope they help too :)

[@user-zv3uw9yo7i]

Dear Melissa may i ask you what you think about lugols iodine?

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

I have heard it can be helpful in some cases, but I personally haven't tried it yet! Do you use it?

[@JyotiYadav-kc5pc]

Chronic headache remedy??? Plz

[@hacgiaythiengia7516]

I can't find beef liver around my place. Can I have chicken or pork liver? Do I have to consume it raw? And how much per day? I am a liver lover, I can eat 100gr per day, everyday. But many people say it is not good to eat too much.

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

I would do chicken from organic, pasture fed animals, but I personally wouldn't do pork liver, since pigs don't have as good of a detoxification system. My experience has been with raw liver. I take several tablespoons per day. Hope that helps!

[@alexandragrace8164]

Had a status migraine for five weeks now. Ketamine infusion, buprenorphine patch, lidocaine infusion, steroids, keterolac, triptans, occipital nerve blocks etc. nothing has worked. Also tried acupuncture, nutrition etc… still can’t sleep properly let alone work due to my migraine. 😓

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

I'm sorry to hear that!

[@JohnJHyde1]

About 15 years ago I went on Atkins. I lost 60 lbs. But I also started getting migraines. I have put the weight back on AND I still have the migraines. What I learned from the diet was to eat a generous portion of protein at each meal. In effect I taught my brain to need it. If I miss a meal with protein now I don't just get hunger pains, it triggers a migraine, every time. My brain loves homeostasis. All brains do. Especially the migraine brain. I am wondering if you went thru the same thing I did, but with your liver pill. Some foods trigger a migraine. Some foods are an absent-trigger, maybe. You trigger a migraine without it. On the other hand if you can tell me you have found that people have taken this liver pill out of the blue and it prevents migraines because if its highly concentrated nutritional value, well that is saying something. Doing a blood test, seeing what levels you are low on and what the liver pill provides might tell us more. I hope my analogy makes sense and you find it constructive. I feel there maybe some similarities, though maybe not the answer you were seeking, but I don't know, just sharing what is in my head. I am certainly glad you found something that works for you.

[@lindsaycate2429]

So thankful for this video. I’ve recently been looking into various elimination diets to get my body in “reset” mode. I actually made up some raw liver pills but only took them a few times. I suffer with migraines and always associated them with hormones. I have never been able to get them under control. I have also tried several natural remedies that occasionally may help but they never fully subside. Thank you greatly for this information!! I am interested in the gene mutation information as well and would love to see a video on it! I watched a video a while ago about prenatal vitamins and how we can be “immune” to the type of folate that is in most of them. She mentioned a gene mutation as well; though I don’t remember now what it was called. I’ll be going back to check it out! It would be interesting if the two were connected.

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

You're welcome! I hope it helps you like it has me! I do think there might be a hormone element to mine also, but it's not just that... it's tricky to pinpoint! I will add the MTHFR gene mutation to my list of videos to do :) Was it Health Home and Happiness who talked about the prenatal vitamins? She has great info! I do think this is related to that. Thanks for being here!

[@wendyplear82]

My youngest daughter (19) get horrible migraines several times a month. We are just running across Weston A Price and the gaps diet so we are looking into that. She is a full time student in college and is due to go off to college and do the dorm thing. We are trying all kinds of stuff to help her figure this out before she goes off because these migraines are diliberating. Thanks for this info. Her's seem to be her menstrual cycle (coming into the cycle and ending the cycle). She is interested in that Gene mutation you were talking about. Any other suggestions for issues around menstrual cycles or how you handle stress would be an awesome video as well. Thanks!

[@leylomalene]

wendy plear So sorry to hear about your daughter. Look into the Stanton migraine protocol. I wasn’t able to work due to constant migraines, had tried everything out there. This protocol helped me, now I am back to work. I still have a migraine around my period so I’m definitely going to try the raw liver out. stantonmigraineprotocol.com/ There’s a lot to learn on this protocol but it literally gave me my life back😊

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Oh I can feel for her! I didn't get them that often, so that must be so miserable to have them several times a month. There does seem to be a hormonal piece to this, for me as well. I will get another video out on the MTHFR gene mutation, as I think this must have a lot to do with it. And the idea for a video on cycles and stress is great! Thank you for that; I'll add it to my list of videos to do. I recommend GAPS as well, as the gut plays a big part in hormones and overall health. I hope she can figure out how to get relief! Sending well wishes her way!

[@amydelpiere6078]

Wendy Plear best wishes for recovery for your daughter. I've experienced the debilitating migraines. GAPS has been helpful to me and still a work in progress. I really have to limit coffee, even decaf.

[@wendyplear82]

Have any of you ladies ever had your hormone levels checked by silava test? It gave any knowledge of that. Also, what do y'all do to reduce stress induced migraines? Thanks for your reply's. Greatly appreciated!

[@amydelpiere6078]

@@wendyplear82 I recently sent out samples to test cortisol levels/adrenal fatigue. Don't have my results yet. My new doc sent me home with the kit and I sent it out via FedEx. So very convenient. It was $129 paid directly to the lab.

[@src4409]

When i would get migraines years ago the only thing that would help was getting into the bathtub and submerging my head completely except my nose. No joke. Now i have hormonal migraines.

[@user-bt8kv9yj1j]

Hi Bumblebee, my daughter has terrible migraines, listening to you I kinda know What's the of her migraines. She really fights with me because I converted to Christianity from islam, I come from a staunch rule following and respected in the half of the country of Ghana. She doesn't talk with me, my mother has my funeral before she died, just to let you know the gravity of the situation because I am an embarrassment. To the point she is afraid of me around my grandchildren because. Then here husband married a second wife. Besides all these his family are reserved because she's pushy, controlling, competitive and other unnecessaries. I believe these contributes and excalates and maximises her desperate need to control every situation and leaves no stone unturned. You the story. Thank for this video, will definitely forward this video to my only daughter and I will think about subscribing. I am Ibrahim Yusuf, born in Ghana and travelled the world and still doing it. Thank you

[@Aquarian_83]

My husband suffers from a chronic migraine 24/7 for 2 years now if this works I'll find ya and hug ya .. 😢 I can't watch him suffer anymore just watching hurts me

[@marcellouis2448]

Tell us if it works!

[@alyssasweetypie]

Did it help? I have chronic migraines as well and have thought about doing Gaps as well as the liver daily

[@christinesangermano4910]

Does it have to be beef liver? What about chicken liver or dessicated beef liver?

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

I've had the best results with beef liver versus desiccated capsules, although I will take those when traveling. I'm not sure I'd do raw chicken liver. But I love chicken liver pate` :)

[@MikeThaPhilosopher]

I don’t eat meat 😫.. do you think regular iron pills work?

[@asmrfoodieuk7965]

Same. I'm on 200mg of non heme iron a day and it's helped a ton. I was on the lower end of the iron scale so it's going to take a while to get my levels back up. I'm giving it 6 months and then will see. I'm also dosed up on b vits and magnesium.

[@mamamoore3474]

Can a man take them? My son is suffering si bad could you answer eight away What else is it used for

[@CalmVibesVee]

Staying in ketosis with no dairy made my migraines vanish.

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Wow, fascinating! Thanks for sharing.

[@CalmVibesVee]

Bumblebee Apothecary I still will get a regular headache with strong storms or if around someone too long with perfume or cologne (phthalates). But I have had only 1 migraine since May’17 when I went Keto. Doc said I eliminated the inflammation triggers. Also I don’t get car sick anymore. Zero, even in mountains. He said again, inflammation.

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

Wow, that is wonderful!

[@hollypinkney6892]

How long after starting the raw liver did you get relief from your migraines?

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

I didn’t get any migraines at all after beginning to take it every day 😊

[@hollypinkney6892]

Bumblebee Apothecary , I’m so happy it worked immediately for you! I’ve been taking it 5 days and no change yet.😢

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

I'm sorry to hear that. I take about 2-3 tbsp a day.

[@hollypinkney6892]

Bumblebee Apothecary Thank you. I’ve been taking 2-3TBL for three weeks and no change in my migraines. I am determined to take it at least 30 days before stopping. One thing I’ve learned over the past 35 years of migraines, is everyone’s are different. I just keep trying new things to try and find the right combination...keep what helps a little.

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

@@hollypinkney6892 I'm so sorry there hasn't been any change yet. You are so right, everyone is different. I really hope you can find what works for you! Sending well wishes your way!

[@tiffanyspencer3127]

Do you think that raw sheep liver would work?

[@BumblebeeApothecary]

I'm not sure, that's a great question! The Weston A. Price foundation recommends beef liver, so I've stuck with that. I would think the nutrition would be very similar in sheep liver. I guess I would just try to make sure there aren't any other parasite concerns that are specific to sheep.

[@orior3650]

great video i wouldnt use cow milk ..anyhow other things that can help are feverfew , peppermint oil diluted with coconut or olive oil externally , jamaican dogwood , lemon , rosemary ...also might help some gentle rhomboid / neck massage if the sufferer can take it , i also recommend eating healthy keto diet like dr. berg vids show as well as intermittent fasting (skipping breakfast or dinner) , also removing wifi and microwave from home radiation is bad for us as well as checking if you dont live in front of a cell tower antenna cause this radiation goes through the walls even from far away . if you do have an antenna blasting your home use aluminum anti Mosquito net to cover the wall from which the radiation is coming or buy anti radiation drapes/curtains or find anti radiation paint but if you do use anti radiation remember not to use wi-fi or microwave at home because we dont want to trap it in ... take care .

[@verolucia2233]

I’m vegetarian 😢

[@jadespencer9991]

So interesting! I have struggled with frequent migraines after having kids and have not found anything that helps. Luckily I have pounds of raw frozen beef liver so I can give it a go.

I hope it works for you like it did for me!
