Feverfew is a natural herb traditionally used to relieve severe headaches. It does this by inhibiting the release of prostaglandins. Feverfew controls the inflammation that constricts the blood vessels in the head and prevents blood vessel spasms that may contribute to headaches.When the blood vessels react abnormally they can cause the unpleasant symptoms of migraine headaches - nausea, throbbing head pain and sensitivity to light. If you are a sufferer you will know how debilitating an attack can be. The main active ingredient in Feverfew is Parthenolide, which has been studied at the London Migraine Clinic. It is believed that continuous periods of taking Feverfew can reduce the severity, duration, and frequency of severe headaches. Its anti-inflammatory properties are also believed to ease diseases caused by chronic inflammation. Feverfew works best for you as long-term prevention rather than reaching for it during an attack. That means taking it regularly over long periods.
