| A lovely and easy to grow perennial garden flower, Feverfew relieves pain and inflammation, making it a valuable remedy with many uses including headaches, stress, arthritis and lupus. If you have annoying allergy symptoms try using feverfew.
Many feverfew products are standardized to a specific parthenolide content to treat migraines, but a more holistic approach is to use whole herb extracts. Feverfew is a bitter herb for tea, and not one you would drink just for the pleasure. Better to use a tincture or capsules. It has a gentle, sedative quality. | | | 
I first became interested in feverfew as a treatment for an older cat of mine.
Feverfew can be used as a pain reliever in cats, (or dogs) as an
alternative to aspirin which are toxic to felines. You can use a glycerin-based tincture or a teaspoon dose cooled tea in drinking water. I could never get my cat to drink it, however, it did work well for a flea rinse.
Feverfew contain compounds known to paralyze fleas. Works best as a rinse made from fresh flowers. 405 |

Google has a cool gadget that converts units of weight and volume. Just enter the measure you want to convert from first, i.e. "Cups in quart".
| Equivalence Measures |
| 1 pinch = less than 1/8 teaspoon (dry) |
| 1 dash = 3 drops to 1/4 teaspoon (liquid) |
| 3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon = 1/2 ounce (liquid and dry) |
| 2 tablespoons = 1 ounce (liquid and dry) |
| 4 tablespoons = 2 ounces (liquid and dry) = 1/4 cup |
| 1 cup = 8 ounces (liquid) = 1/2 pint |
| 16 cups = 128 ounces (liquid) = 4 quarts = 1 gallon |
| Approximate Equivalents |
| 1 quart (liquid) = about 1 liter |
| 8 tablespoons = 4 ounces = 1/2 cup = 1 stick butter |
