Feverfew

As the name suggests, the flowers of this herb were traditionally used to reduce fever, likely due to their bitter components. In modern herbal medicine, Feverfew is prized for its use in helping to prevent and reduce migraines and headaches. In high doses, Feverfew has an emmenagogue action. It is also useful in allergic conditions such as hayfever, asthma, dermatitis and urticaria.
