Values are expressed as median, minimum, and maximum values (Median ± [min.–max. value]) for continuous variables. Differences between both groups of dietary intervention from baseline to t1 were performed Wilcoxon signed-rank test, while Δ% Baseline−4 weeks differences between the groups were compared by Mann-Whitney test. Statistical significance was attributed as *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001). The Shapiro-Wilk test was performed to evaluate the variable distribution. Variables are considered non-normally distributed for p < 0.05. HIT-6, Headache Impact Test; VAS, Visual Analog Scale.
