Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium) is an herb that has been traditionally used for its potential health benefits, particularly in relation to migraines and other inflammatory conditions. The active compounds in feverfew are believed to have anti-inflammatory and vasodilatory effects, which may contribute to its various uses.
It is the combination of ingredients in the feverfew plant that brings such
effective relief. It works to inhibit the release of two inflammatory
substances, serotonin, and prostaglandins, both believed to contribute to
the onset of migraines. By inhibiting these amines as well as the
production of the chemical histamine, the herb controls inflammation that
constricts the blood vessels in the head and prevents blood vessel spasms
which may contribute to headaches.*
What Is Feverfew Used For:
- Migraine Headaches: Perhaps most well-known for its potential in reducing the frequency and severity of migraine headaches. Some studies suggest that regular use of feverfew can help prevent migraines or decrease their intensity. The exact mechanism of action is not fully understood, but it is thought to involve the inhibition of serotonin release and anti-inflammatory effects.
- Arthritis and Inflammation: Beneficial for people with inflammatory conditions like arthritis. It might help to alleviate symptoms such as pain, swelling, and stiffness.
- Menstrual Discomfort: Relieves symptoms associated with menstrual cycles, such as cramps and discomfort. Again, this is related to the herb's potential anti-inflammatory effects.
- Digestive Health: Feverfew has been used traditionally to aid digestion, alleviate gastrointestinal discomfort, and reduce bloating. Its potential to reduce inflammation might contribute to its perceived benefits in this regard
- Skin Conditions: Some people use feverfew topically in creams or lotions to help manage skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema, due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
- Fever Reduction: The name "feverfew" originates from its traditional use in treating fevers. Some believe it has mild fever-reducing properties, although it's not commonly used for this purpose in modern times.
