9 natural plant remedies for stomach problems

Feverfew

Feverfew (wild quinine)

Feverfew gets its name from its feathery leaves and has long been used to treat stomach problems.

The Kallaway Indians of Peru use it to treat morning sickness and stomach ache, as well as kidney pain. In Costa Rica, feverfew is used in a medicinal treatment for indigestion and as an enema for worms.

You can take feverfew in capsule, tablet or liquid form. Feverfew leaves can leave a bitter taste and may irritate the mouth. For this reason, it’s best to buy capsules that contain freeze-dried leaves, rather than fresh.
