Migraines & Food Trigger Nutrition Support

Migraines can be debilitating, unpredictable, and disruptive to daily life. Many people notice a connection between migraines and food—but identifying triggers isn’t always straightforward. Skipping meals, under-fueling, dehydration, blood sugar swings, and certain food patterns can all play a role.

At Compass Nutrition, our dietitians help patients explore the nutrition–migraine connection using a structured, evidence-based approach—without overly restrictive diets or guesswork.

What to Expect from a Migraine Nutrition Appointment

During your appointment, your dietitian will review migraine patterns, symptoms, eating habits, hydration, and lifestyle factors. Together, you’ll develop a nutrition plan designed to support stability, nourishment, and migraine management.

Appointments are available for patients in New York, with both in-person and virtual options.
