Description
When you have a migraine, it can consume your existence. The Herbal Toad's Migraine Tincture can help with our fast acting formula that combines two of the best known and loved herbs for migraine and headache relief.
Butterbur: For many centuries the butterbur was used as an herbal remedy for conditions like pain, fever and spasms. Today, butterbur is mainly used for migraine prevention, but also for treating headaches and asthma.
Butterbur Studies: According to the first trial published by Lipton in 200415 and conducted in the USA and Germany with 245 migraine patients with and without aura, the participants found relief from migraine symptoms with butterbur. The participants were treated for 4 months twice daily with either placebo or 50 mg or 75 mg commercial butterbur. Maximum response was achieved after 3 months resulting in an attack reduction of 58% with a 2×75 mg/day dosing. This was statistically significant compared to the placebo response of 28%. The percentage of patients responding to the therapy was 71% after treatment with butterbur. Two randomized, placebo-controlled migraine prevention trials with a total of 289 patients demonstrated the safety and efficacy of the butterbur root extract in adults16, 17, prompting an exploration of the prevention of migraine in children also.
Feverfew: Feverfew has had a long history of use in traditional and folk medicine. It has become a popular prophylactic treatment for migraine headaches and has been claimed to relieve menstrual pain, asthma, dermatitis, and arthritis. Traditionally, the herb has been used as an antipyretic (fever reducer), from which its common name is derived.
Feverfew Studies: Seventeen migraine patients who already used feverfew daily as migraine prophylaxis enrolled in a controlled trial in which 8 patients continued to receive feverfew while 9 stopped taking their feverfew and received placebo treatment instead (i.e. untreated patients)8. Those who received placebo had a significant increase in the frequency and severity of headache (an average of 3.13 headaches every 6 months when taking placebo vs. only 1.69 headaches every 6 months when taking feverfew), nausea, and vomiting, whereas there was no change in the group receiving feverfew. In a larger study of 72 patients, feverfew was associated with a 24% reduction in the mean number and severity of attacks although the duration of the individual attacks was unaltered.

Organic: Feverfew and Butterbur; steeped in grain alcohol
-> PRINTABLE: HOW TO USE TINCTURES
We use only the highest quality herbs that are certified organic, holistically wild crafted, and never irradiated or sprayed with pesticides. Our cold extraction process, as opposed to a heat extraction process, helps maintain the full spectrum of the plant's constituents in the final product. Our herbs are tinctured in organic alcohol and fresh mountain water (free from harsh chemicals and fluoride treatments). This combination acts as a medicinal strength and holistically balanced carrier, bringing the needed remedy straight to the blood stream to work fast and effectively. Tinctures are absorbed in the mouth and stomach and bypass the slower intestinal system which may or may not absorb the needed constituents of capsules. We hand make these wonderful herbal preparations in small batches. Tinctures are poured off into dark glass bottles creating a great product with an optimally long shelf life.

MIGRAINE
Suffered migraines on and off - longest periods being a month but within last yr it went almost 3 months. Wasn't going to any conventional doctor to get botox or some other thing. Got tired of popping Tylenol. So I thanked God for Herbal Toad tinctures. Migraine and Anti Inflame tinctures together highly alleviated, if not totally stopped the severity of the pain. I definitely want theses items on hand.

Migraine
I wasn't convinced that anything other than medicine would work, but I was willing to try it. I have no idea how something like this works but it has changed my way of thinking when it comes to herbs.

Work + Determination = That's a Win
This didn't work at first so I call Herbal Toad and spoke to the herbalist who was soooo sweet and helpful. I found out that it was going to take some work to figure out how this was going to work for me. Stephanie worked with me regularly until my migraines went from a couple a week that were bad enough to completely wipeout my day to just the occasional migraine that I have the tools to deal with more quickly.

Keep taking it
Migraine has everything in it that helps with migraine relief. Just keep using it at least 3 times a day.

Sometimes simple is better.
I honestly didn't think that this would work. It seemed too simple when I have suffered for a long time and have already tried so many things. Regardless, I ordered it on a hope and prayer. I guess this shows that sometimes the good old simple solutions are the answer.
