Holland & Barrett Feverfew Migraine Relief - Does It Work?-Review

What is Holland & Barrett Feverfew Migraine Relief?

Holland & Barrett Feverfew Migraine Relief is an all natural supplement  which contains a plant extract to manage and reduce the onset of migraines. Migraines are caused by a variety of factors in the body but they exhibit a common effect, which is intense pain in the head and possibly nausea and blurry vision. Migraines can affect people of any age and often some form of intervention is necessary. That is why in this review, we look at this supplement to determine if it can help reduce the onset of migraines.

Ingredients & How It Works

There is only one active ingredient  in this supplement which is feverfew extract. Feverfew extract contains many active compounds which can act on various kinds of cells in the body.  Some of the active compounds inhibit the spastic dilation of blood vessels the brain which sometimes contribute to pain. They have also been shown to reduce the production of inflammatory substances and to reduce nausea effects.  

We definitely feel that many more ingredients could have been included to increase the range of results that could potentially have been offered by this product. There are a variety of other plant extracts which have just as much scientific backing as feverfew and a number of minerals and vitamins which could also have been included.

This product is also not suitable for individuals under 18 years old or pregnant and breastfeeding women.

Daily Serving

One capsule should be taken daily to reduce the onset of migraines. It is not specified whether the capsule should be taken with a meal or not.

Each capsule contains 100 mg of feverfew extract, which is an optimal dosage of this extract.

The Cost

One package containing 30 capsules can be bought online for $7.99. 60 capsules can usually be purchased for $13.99, but there currently appears to be a special where 60 capsules will cost $6.99. A 5% discount is offered for any customers who subscribe for a regular purchase of this product.

Our Review Summary Of Holland & Barrett Feverfew Migraine Relief

The customer feedback it seems to be quite supportive of the supplement, but there are some customers who claim the supplement does not work for them.  We do believe that feverfew extract can in some ways regulate the onset of migraines especially since it has been scientifically shown. We do think the product could be more effective if it contained other ingredients too.

The price of the product is quite low but this is to be expected because it only contains one active ingredient. We also believe the guarantee to be quite ambiguous and weak.

Conclusively,  we do think that purchasing this product is quite risky considering that there are other supplements like it available which do contain more active ingredients and offer a proper guarantee.
