Treatment for Cluster Headache

Lysine is an essential amino acid that may help reduce the frequency and severity of cluster headaches by potentially inhibiting arginine-mediated neurogenic inflammation and modulating nitric oxide production. By competing with arginine in metabolic pathways, lysine can help decrease the neurogenic inflammatory responses associated with cluster headache pathogenesis, potentially providing prophylactic relief through its amino acid interaction mechanisms.

Literally eyeballing my giant bottle of lysine now. It really is a helpful supplement. Tried it when I got the flu last year - found out it cures canker sores. Am now a convert.
