Did Sugar Cookies Cure my Headache?

by

For the better part of Tuesday, I was suffering a mild headache, but didn’t want to take a Tylenol because I’d read that the less frequently you take analgesics, the more quickly your body fights pain on its own.

Well, the pain lingered all day, without incapacitating me. When I drove downtown to have dinner with a friend, he gave me a box of cookies that I had left in a grocery bag with chips I had given him.

Even after a delicious home-cooked meal, the headache would not go away. So, on a whim (or a craving?) and against my better judgment, I dove into those sugar cookies. With each bite, my headache eased. I made it home without taking a Tylenol.

So, now I’m wondering if I’ve discovered a new method of treating headaches.

But, will eating sugar cookies make my body respond more quickly to headaches? Or will it make me crave such sweet treats all the more?

  1. I saw a show on the Discovery Channel (or maybe it was the Hitler Channel) that said our bodies when they sense a deficiency will crave food sources that contain the vitamin or mineral or whatever that we are deficient in.

    Apparently, my body is chronically deficient in a vitamin that is only found in Roy Rogers fried chicken.

  5. When I have a bad case of “wine flu” I find that a visit to Ben and Jerry’s cures what ails me.

    We don’t have Roy Rogers, but Popeye’s has been known to provide a cure as well.

  7. My son now refers to a certain biological function as “Taking an Obama.”

    That must be updated from my son’s saying: I’m dropping some Cosby’s off at the pool.

  10. Now a package of PF Milanos will cure anything.

    BTW,

    that said our bodies when they sense a deficiency will crave food sources that contain the vitamin or mineral or whatever that we are deficient in.

    Lately, I’ve been craving some butterfly porkchops done up in Shake n Bake and seriously considered driving to Denny’s at 3AM for some link sausage. Now if I could just get some fried Catfish from Mississippi.

  11. OK, I’ll chime in. When I can’t sleep and Hubby is busy snoring next to me, it’s usually time for a Jumbo Jack (hold the ketchup) and/or chicken sandwich with bacon.
