Why your daily cups of tea may be giving you a headache
The NHS says that one in five women and one in 15 men in the UK suffer from the condition. It is characterised by a moderate to severe headache with throbbing pain, sometimes associated with feeling or being sick and sensitivity to light or sound.
"While some potential triggers - such as lack of sleep - may only increase migraine risk, the role of caffeine is particularly complex, because it may trigger an attack but also helps control symptoms," study author Dr Elizabeth Mostofsky said. Caffeine quantities in each drink varied between 25 to 150 milligrams depending on the drink and preparation methods.
