Migraine is a common nervous disorder and affects approx. 8-15% of the populationwith women being affected more often than men.

The results showed that the group receiving feverfew extract had significantly fewer migraine attacks compared to the placebo group. significantly fewer migraine attacks had. The number of attacks per week fell in the motherwort group from an average of 4.76 to 2.96, a reduction of 38%. Meanwhile, the number of attacks in the placebo group only fell from 4.64 to 4.2.

There is also evidence that feverfew can reduce the activity of certain enzymes involved in cartilage destruction. As cartilage plays an important role in joint health, the reduction in enzyme activity by feverfew may help to slow down cartilage breakdown in arthritis. slow the breakdown of cartilage in arthritis.
The effect of parthenolide on the production of inflammatory substances in immune cells was investigated in an in vitro study. For this purpose, human monocytes (a type of immune cell) were cultured in the laboratory and treated with parthenolide. It was found that the active ingredient inhibits the production of inflammatory substances that play a role in inflammation and pain. This suggests that parthenolide could effectively curb inflammatory diseases such as arthritis.
Feverfew is a medicinal plant that is used not only for physical complaints but also for psychological problems. There are several studies that have shown the effectiveness of feverfew in the treatment of mood swings and mental illnesses such as anxiety and depression have been investigated.

In this study, mice were subjected to various behavioral tests to observe the effect of feverfew. The results showed that feverfew does indeed have a positive effect on the psyche. It was found to have both an anxiolytic as well as an antidepressant effect was could be determined.
