Migraine protects women from diabetes! Daily newspaper of Kuwait

A history of migraines can reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes in women, according to a recent study.
The researchers say women with severe chronic headache are 30% less likely to develop a chronic illness than women with no history of migraines.
In a study by the Gustav Rossi Institute, the cancer research center of Vilgoyev, France, despite the high prevalence of the disease, especially among women, the link between them is poorly understood.
Migraine is the third most prevalent disease in the world, according to the Migraine Research Foundation.
Previous studies have shown that hypoglycemia is a key factor in the onset of migraine and that, as plasma glucose concentration increases with time until it reaches the Type 2 diabetes, the symptoms of migraine may decrease.
The team examined 74,000 French French women suffering from migraine attacks and participated in a French study conducted by the Gustav Rossi Institute on the risk factors for cancer in women. Type II diabetes has nearly eight times more women than women with no history of migraine, compared to those with a history of migraine.
The researchers found that women with active migraines were 30% less likely to develop type 2 diabetes.
They also found a decrease in the prevalence of active migraine before the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes.
The researchers found that the number of migraines decreased in the years preceding type 2 diabetes, with only 11% reporting having active migraines.
