Do feverfew supplements help with migraine headache prevention?

Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium L.) comes from a flower that looks like a daisy. Its main active ingredient is parthenolide. Feverfew reduces inflammation and -- as its name suggests -- it is commonly used to treat fevers, arthritis, menstrual discomfort, and migraines.

Migraine frequency decreases by one-fourth in some people taking about 100 mg of feverfew daily. Parthenolide content varies widely among different brands of feverfew, and a preparation must contain at least 0.2 percent parthenolide to prevent migraines. A higher amount of parthenolide (0.5 percent) is available in feverfew manufactured in Israel (available at Galilee Herbal Remedies).

This higher concentration may be more beneficial for reducing migraines. Feverfew decreases clotting and should be avoided if you have a bleeding disorders or use aspirin, anti-inflammatory medications, or other medications that decrease clotting.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
