Nutritionist please advise:

For the first 3 days of the UltraSimple Diet, I have had horrible and pretty much constant headaches.  I have tried drinking more broth and I feel that I am drinking enough fluids and eating enough protein and also exercising.  I am also following the program exactly (except I am sleeping in a little later since I have had trouble getting enough sleep with the headaches).  Is this just part of the detox process?  Are there any natural remedies to help ease the pain?  I have tried cold compresses and that helped a little.  Please help.

I also had terrible headaches during the first week of detox.  I refrained from taking ibuprofen or migraine medicine and suffered through them.  I attributed it to the detox and that I was going through withdrawal of some kind (I went through something like this before when I gave up coffee).  After getting through the first week of detox, I can say that I am headache free.  I did detox for the three weeks and now I am in the third week of adding foods back and have not had any more headaches.  Hang in there - it will get better.

Thanks for the advice.  I just thought it was weird that I didn't have any really bad headaches in the "prep week" when I eliminated caffeine, sugar and flour.  I'm glad to hear you are doing so well with the program and are now headache-free.  Hopefully that will be me soon!
