Medicinal Herb Feverfew

I recently went down a rabbit hole on the medicinal herb feverfew. This episode I share with you what i learned.

I started with a PubMed article on feverfew.

Then I had to look at a PubMed article on its active compounds sesquiterpene lactones.

Sesquiterpene lactones are found in the asteraceae family.

Had to go down the asteraceae rabbit hole.

The specific sesquiterpene lactone they found to be anti cancerous was parthenolide.

So, I had to look at PubMed article on parthenolide.

Come down the rabbit hole.

Enjoy.
