Researchers with The Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation discovered that  the smell of green apples had some positive effect on reducing the severity of migraines.  They found that the smell of green apples can reduce the brain-thumping symptoms of a migraine. Inhalation can be the most direct delivery method of these important nurturing components, since the chemical messengers in the nasal cavity have direct access to the brain.

The researchers  reported that patients who liked the smell of green apples experienced a significant reduction in the severity of their headaches, while patients who disliked the smell experienced no significant effects.
