Have you ever used the Artemisia absinthium ?

 

[Greg BoggsStudent]

No I haven’t, I’ve never really had the need to

Sweet wormwood is much better for a lot of things than wormwood. It has much higher levels of artemisinin. Have a look at the individual plant lesson:

Sweet Wormwood (Artemisia Annua)

Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.

Where does one get it? I can’t seem to find it online, just like brigham tea. Looking for the dried plant, not a tincture. I will still probably purchase your tincture.

what are the major uses , for wormwood ?  I have a good bit of it , I accidentally bought the wormwood instead of sweet wormwood and was trying to figure out what the best application is.  Finding a lot of “information” stating it is toxic.  Is the major use for it for parasites?
