Based on years of clinical studies, Migra-Eeze™ formulation with standardized extract of butterbur root provides support for head comfort.1
Based on the current body of evidence, experts are recommending an extract from the herb butterbur (Petasites hybridus) to maintain head cavity comfort.1 In fact, clinical trials in both Germany and the United States suggest butterbur extract may support head comfort.2 Butterbur's principal active constituent, petasin, reduces smooth muscle spasms and helps relax the constriction of cerebral blood vessels. Butterbur's ability to relax constricted arteries and smooth muscle may help control head cavity discomfort.3
Life Extension's new Migra-Eeze™ contains butterbur root extract standardized to provide 22.5 mg of petasins with each daily dose of two softgels. Riboflavin (vitamin B2) and ginger are included based on the ability of these nutrients to exert functional changes that may also guard against head cavity discomforts.4-7
Supplementation with Migra-Eeze™ should be carried out for four to six months. Discontinue Migra-Eeze™ after the initial cycle of four to six months, after which it will maintain its benefits. Resume supplementation for another four to six month cycle when symptoms begin to increase.
