Take Control of Your Cluster Headaches
A safe, natural and effective, patient-led protocol that has helped thousands achieve relief or complete remission from Cluster Headache.
What is a Cluster Headache?
Cluster headaches are among the most painful conditions known to medical science. Often called “suicide headaches,” they strike with brutal, excruciating pain, like a hot poker through the eye, accompanied by unbearable pressure.
Unlike migraines, these attacks come suddenly, often at the same time each day, and can last from 15 minutes to agonizing hours. Multiple attacks per day for weeks or months leave sufferers incapacitated and desperate for relief.
There is Hope
The Vitamin D3 Anti-Inflammatory Regimen has helped thousands achieve remission or significantly reduce attack frequency and intensity.
