FEVERFEW HERB BENEFITS
For centuries, people have been taking feverfew to treat migraines.
Migraines are moderate to severe headaches that affect one side of the head. They’re typically accompanied by throbbing, pulsating, or pounding pain (2Trusted Source).
In test-tube studies, compounds in feverfew — such as parthenolide and tanetin — helped stop the production of prostaglandins, which are molecules that promote inflammation.
Other test-tube studies show that parthenolide may inhibit serotonin receptors, prevent blood platelets from releasing inflammatory molecules, stop blood vessels in the brain from widening (vasodilation), and stop smooth muscle spasms.
Anti-inflammatory properties of feverfew may help relieve pain
In studies in mice, feverfew helped reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.
