A member asked:

Why do i get a slight headache after a moderately intense cardio workout?? what is my brain trying to tell me? to eat nutrients/proteins immediately? i always drink water before and during the workout. is it aching due to an empty stomach?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Exertional triggering of migraine is quite common. Other triggers such as dehydration appear to be handled, and doubt this is nutritional hypoglycemia. Find a neurologist, and get this fully evaluated.
