Migraines heat up as women approach menopause, says a new study from researchers at the University of Cincinnati (UC), Montefiore Headache Center, Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Vedanta Research.

 

The risk for high frequency headache, or more than 10 days with headache per month, increases by 60 per cent in middle-aged women with migraine during the perimenopause—the transitional period into menopause marked by irregular menstrual cycles—as compared to normally cycling women, according to Vincent Martin, the study’s lead author.

 

“Changes in female hormones such as estrogen and progesterone that occur during the perimenopause might trigger increased headaches during this time,” says Richard Lipton, MD, director, Montefiore Headache Center and professor and vice chair of neurology, and the Edwin S. Lowe Chair in Neurology, Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

 

About 12 per cent of the U.S. population experiences migraine, with women suffering from them three times more frequently than men.

Almost $200 million Americans own cell phones

comScore reports that, as of December 2015, that over $200 million Americans own cell phones. This creates opportunities for natural health retailers.

More people using cell phones equates to more people paying with their mobile device. A Deloitte study reports that not many retailers have activated mobile payment options (for example, Apple Pay) as of yet. However, retailers are considering the technology when new software or hardware is purchased.

More people using cell phones means that retailers can expand their inventory—without taking up shelf space. The Deloitte report states that many retailers are searching for methods to bring their endless supply of product available online into the store. The technology, known as endless aisles, gives retailers the opportunity to extend product supply and options to customers who have visited the store.
