Description
With at least 39 million Americans suffering from migraines, the search for relief is on a lot of hurting minds. Thankfully Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium) is an herb that can help!
Over the centuries, traditional folk uses of feverfew have included:
• Fevers
• Headaches
• Stomachaches
• Toothaches
• Insect bites
• Infertility
• Problems with menstruation and labor during childbirth
Newer uses for feverfew include:
• Migraine headaches
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Psoriasis
• Allergies
• Asthma
• Tinnitus
• Dizziness
• Nausea and vomiting
Feverfew’s pain-easing effect is said to come from a biochemical called parthenolides, which combat the widening of blood vessels that occurs in migraines. It may even be more effective than other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDS), like aspirin!
Research shows that consuming feverfew helps reduces the frequency and get rid of migraine headaches and headache symptoms, including pain, nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and noise.
Several impressive human studies have shown the positive effects of using feverfew to prevent and treat migraines. A survey of 270 people with migraines in Great Britain found that more than 70 percent of them felt much better after consuming an average of two to three fresh leaves daily.
In addition, a systematic review completed by the School of Postgraduate Medicine and Health Science in the U.K. compared the results of six studies. Researchers found that feverfew is effective in the prevention of migraine headaches and doesn’t pose any major safely concerns.
