TheBrown57 Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 The researchers monitored the blood flow through their brains using an ultrasoundlike process on the skull. They saw that increased blood flow to the brain through a blood vessel called the anterior cerebral artery, which is located in the middle of the brain behind the eyes. This increase in flow and resulting increase in size in this artery brought on the pain associated with brain freeze. When the artery constricts, reining in the response to this increased flow, the pain disappears. The dilation, then quick constriction, of this blood vessel may be a type of self-defense for the brain, the researchers suggested.http://www.livescience.com/19834-brain-freeze-blood-flow-migraines.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namtugeoj Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Just stick your tongue to the roof of your mouth and it will warm that part up. Either it works to cure brain freeze or the freeze never lasted to long in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
