NOW Supplements, Petasita con Tanaceto, Apoyo Neurológico, 60 Cápsulas Vegetales

What is Butterbur with Feverfew by NOW Foods?

Butterbur with Feverfew by NOW Foods is a dietary supplement that combines two herbs traditionally used in European herbalism. Butterbur (Petasites hybridus) and feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium) have been used for decades to promote overall well-being. This product comes in vegetable capsules and is formulated to offer a convenient way to incorporate these extracts into your daily routine.

A notable feature of this supplement is that it has been processed to remove pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs), unwanted compounds present in the raw plant. This allows for regular use with greater peace of mind. NOW Foods guarantees that its butterbur is free of these compounds through rigorous laboratory testing.

Benefits of Butterbur with Feverfew

European herbalists have used butterbur for decades, and scientific studies have shown that petasites, the active components of butterbur, can help maintain healthy blood flow to the brain and promote normal neurological function.* In this way, butterbur can contribute to maintaining head comfort in healthy individuals.*

The combination with feverfew adds a complementary botanical profile. As with any supplement, effects may vary between individuals, and it is important to consider it as part of a healthy lifestyle.

Key ingredients

This product contains two main ingredients:

• Butterbur (Petasites hybridus): Root extract standardized to petasites. Petasites are the active compounds believed to support normal neurological function and cerebral blood flow.*
• Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium): Herb traditionally used in European phytotherapy. It provides its own botanical properties.

The product is free of unwanted pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs), making it suitable for continuous use.
