Krystal Provides Sphenopalatineganglioneuralgia Relief
Last week we told you about Krystal’s new icy cold slush beverage called Krystal Freeze, which is made with premium Monin syrups that use 100% pure cane sugar flavoring instead of high fructose corn syrup. We also briefly warned you about the inevitable brain freeze you may get when enjoying one of these cold, refreshing treats. Well, now that the premium slush drinks are officially available in all corporate owned Krystal restaurants and most franchise locations, we wanted to take some time to elaborate on the temporarily painful condition.
Yes, we want to arm with you information and tips for relieving brain freeze, giving you the confidence to gulp and slurp your favorite Krystal Freeze flavor without worrying about its debilitating effects should it strike.
Medically referred to as sphenopalatineganglioneuralgia but more commonly called brain freeze, the condition affects one-third of the population and occurs when a cold object touches the roof of your mouth causing the blood vessels to contract.

In addition to providing these brain freeze relief tips, we’ve created brainfreezerelief.com, a site where you can learn more about the condition and even meet up with other sufferers and trade brain freeze relief home remedies.
We’ve also created the instructional video below that we hope you’ll check it out and share with your friends.
