Published June 27, 2017 | By shirleytwofeathers

British scientists at the University of Exeter analyzed six studies of feverfew, concluding that the herb significantly reduces the frequency of migraine occurrence. “In my experience,” Duke says, “feverfew prevents migraines in about two-thirds of those who use it consistently.”

Dosage is generally 50 to 150 mg per day of powdered leaves.
