chamomile
Treatment for Cluster Headache
Chamomile contains flavonoids like apigenin that exhibit anti-inflammatory and mild anxiolytic properties, potentially modulating pain perception and reducing neurogenic inflammation associated with cluster headaches. Its primary mechanism involves binding to benzodiazepine receptors and inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, which may help mitigate headache intensity and provide symptomatic relief through neurological and vascular mechanisms.
