didgens Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I was at a Farmers Market on Sunday. There was an herbalist there selling all kinds of teas and dried herbs in addition to fresh potted plants. The people there were selling a Migraine Tea. The main ingredient was Feverfew. They had the live plant there and the lady gave me a small leaf to bite. it tasted horrible, like chewing on an asprin. they swear by it. Its also known as bachelor buttons. I did some reading on it. Anyone have any experience with it ? I did buy a small bag of tea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bejeeber Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I think of it as being the best known headache/migraine herb. I tried it and herbal combinations containing it long ago and got zero results. I haven't seen anyone report any benefit from it for CH. As far as herbal concoctions go, I'm much more interested right at the moment in the newly discussed mamajuana (which I know you're very aware of didgens). And for single herbs, I also believe there would be more chance of success for CH with kudzu or licorice root than with feverfew. I wouldn't be surprised if the tea you got may have some other health benefits though, as herb teas often do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

didgens Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 oh just wanted to add .. she had me chew on the actualy leaf.. I had been reading articles that said the percentage of this herb in some suppliments was suspect so chewing on the plant itself seems to be the key.
