Wormwood - Artemisia Absinthium
The goal of today's article is to present helpful information about the vast health benefits of wormwood (Artemisia absinthium).
Medicinal herbs like wormwood are God's donation to the living soul to form sickness-free beneficial life and play an active part in protecting our fitness. Nothing in the world is more precious to us than our healthy life. Absinthe is considered to be incredibly trustworthy & tested tonic in the therapy of different foodstuffs.
Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) herb is known as holistic healing and natural medicine because of its herbaceous flavor, health benefits, and distinctive aroma. Wormwood is a shrubby plant, its leaves and flowers are used for additive alcoholic refreshment and medicine.
While native to Europe, it grows worldwide, including parts of South America, Asia, the United States, and Africa. The plant has yellow, green leaves, greenish-silver or smooth white stems, and pale yellow or bright flowers. Its flowers are tubiform and assemble in curvilinear angled-down heads. Blossoming begins from the beginning of summer to mid autumn. The fruit is a little achene. It germinates naturally on dry ground, rough, on unstable slopes and fields, and at the side of the track.
This powerful plant has historically been used to remove the body of bad parasites; for that reason, the name wormwood. Extracted oil from these herbs has many health benefits, including pain management, reduced inflammation, and improving digestive health.
Artemisia Absinthium (Grand wormwood) is the nominative herb of the alcohol absinthe. Traditionally, the spices were regarded as an effective treatment for nausea and stomach cramps.
Health Benefits of Wormwood
Herbal healing is the science and art of applying herbs for treating illness and promoting fitness. Herbal remedy refers to using a plant root, seeds, flowers, bark, or berries. Wormwood has been used for curing cause long before writing down experiences. Egyptian papyrus and early Chinese hypothesis offer remedial uses for herbs as soon as 3,000 BC. Experimenters say that persons in various sections of the world moved toward using identical herbs for the same cause.
The health advantages of wormwood can be credited to its effects as deodorant, vermifuge, insecticide, cholagogue, digestive, tonic, narcotic, febrifuge, emmenagogue, and anthelmintic substance. Wormwood is also known as grand wormwood, wormwood sage, Absinthe, Herbe d’Absinthe, Wermut, green ginger, mugwort, and madder wort. In the old days, it was used in drinks such as absinthe to put to its taste. The wormwood oil is taken out by steam distillation of its flowering tops things and leaves.

Artemisinin and its derivatives: a potential treatment for leukemia Abstract
Artemisinin (ART) and its derivatives are one of the most important classes of antimalarial agents, originally derived from a Chinese medicinal plant called Artemisia annua L. Beyond their outstanding antimalarial and antischistosomal activities, ART and its derivatives also possess both in-vitro and in-vivo activities against various types of cancer. Their anticancer effects range from initiation of apoptotic cell death to inhibition of cancer proliferation, metastasis and angiogenesis, and even modulation of the cell signal transduction pathway. This review provides a comprehensive update on ART and its derivatives, their mechanisms of action, and their synergistic effects with other chemicals in targeting leukemia cells. Combined with limited evidence of drug resistance and low toxicity profile, we conclude that ART and its derivatives, including dimers, trimers, and hybrids, might be a potential therapeutic alternative to current chemotherapies in combating leukemia, although more studies are necessary before they can be applied clinically.

Artemisinin-type drugs for the treatment of hematological malignancies
Abstract:
Qinghaosu, known as artemisinin (ARS), has been for over two millennia, one of the most common herbs prescribed in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). ARS was developed as an antimalarial drug and currently belongs to the established standard treatments of malaria as a combination therapy worldwide. In addition to the antimalarial bioactivity of ARS, anticancer activities have been shown both in vitro and in vivo. Like other natural products, ARS acts in a multi-specific manner also against hematological malignancies. The chemical structure of ARS is a sesquiterpene lactone, which contains an endoperoxide bridge essential for activity. The main mechanism of action of ARS and its derivatives (artesunate, dihydroartemisinin, artemether) toward leukemia, multiple myeloma, and lymphoma cells comprises oxidative stress response, inhibition of proliferation, induction of various types of cell death as apoptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, inhibition of angiogenesis, and signal transducers, as NF-κB, MYC, amongst others. Therefore, new pharmaceutically active compounds, dimers, trimers, and hybrid molecules, could enhance the existing therapeutic alternatives in combating hematologic malignancies. Owing to the high potency and good tolerance without side effects of ARS-type drugs, combination therapies with standard chemotherapies could be applied in the future after further clinical trials in hematological malignancies.
Early Research Finds Extracts from Sweet Wormwood Plant Can Inhibit the COVID-19 Virus
Laboratory Findings Suggest Artemisia Annua May Point to Treatment for SARS-CoV-2

A team of researchers that includes Worcester Polytechnic Institute Biology Professor Pamela Weathers has found that extracts from the leaves of the Artemisia annua plant, a medicinal herb also known as sweet wormwood, inhibit the replication of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and two of its recent variants.
The team, which included researchers from Columbia University in New York and the University of Washington at Seattle, also found that extracts of the plant were more effective against the virus when levels of a key therapeutic compound in the plant, artemisinin, were low. The in vitro findings led the researchers to suggest that one or more compounds in Artemisia annua, or A. annua, that have not yet been identified may point to a safe, low-cost therapeutic treatment for SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic.
The work was described in an article published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology.
“Artemisia annua has been studied extensively, and it has been used safely for more than 2,000 years in traditional medicine to treat a variety of fever-related ailments,” Weathers said. “A. annua could provide clues to new safe, cost-effective small molecule therapies or even be used as an antiviral nutraceutical.”
The researchers soaked dried leaves of A. annua, obtained from four continents in hot water and tested the solutions against SARS-CoV-2 and two variants originating from the United Kingdom and South Africa. Some leaf samples were 12 years old but still potent against the virus. Researchers also tested artemisinin alone against the viruses, but the plant extracts were more potent. Artemisinin is a compound naturally produced by the plant, but is usually extracted, chemically modified, and developed in combination with other drugs to treat malaria.
Results showed that the extracts of A. annua did not block the virus from entering cells but interfered with the virus’ ability to replicate, thus killing it. In addition, the anti-replication activity did not appear linked to artemisinin or flavonoids, which are natural substances in the plants.
Weathers has long studied different strains of Artemisia, which are grown around the world. She recently was a co-author on papers exploring the anti-malaria properties of artemisinin and the impact of A. annua and artemisinin extracts on the malaria parasite. She also is collaborating on a study at WPI to identify compounds in A. annua that may be effective against the bacteria responsible for tuberculosis.
Weathers said more work is needed to identify the compound or combination of compounds in A. annua responsible for inhibiting viral replication.
“These findings add to evidence emerging from other labs around the world that this plant possesses compounds that could help patients who are infected with COVID-19,” Weathers said. “We also know that the plant possesses compounds that inhibit inflammation and the formation of scar-like tissues known as fibrosis, which also affect patients with COVID-19. Together, these characteristics point to a plant that bears a lot more study.”

The spike protein triggered by the shots inhibits the activity of tumor suppressor genes, causing cancers to form and rapidly spread, Dalgleish explains.
Additionally, the spike protein interferes with BRCA, which keeps ovarian and breast cancer in check.

Artemisia annua
Artemisinin, the primary chemical compound found in artemisia, is a potent anti-parasitic (it kills parasites) that is commonly used for treatment of malaria. Activity is primarily limited to blood parasites; general antibacterial activity is limited. Artemisia is primarily indicated when Babesia is suspected as a coinfection in Lyme disease.
Suggested dosage: Depends on the preparation used. Artemisia should not be taken for longer than 7 days. Potency quickly declines with extended use. The dose can be repeated after 3 weeks.
Side effects: Significant risk of neurotoxicity (damage to nervous tissue) with extended use. Never use more than 1-2 months.
Sweet Wormwood comes in capsules.
If you decide to make tea out of Sweet Wormwood, it is very bitter tasting. Sweet Wormwood is also toxic if you have too much of it.
It is recommended that you make Sweet Wormwood tea with 1/2 a teaspoon of dry Sweet Wormwood herb per cup of hot water. Listen to your body when drinking herbal teas. Pay attention to your body and how it feels after having herbal tea.'
If you have Sweet Wormwood 3 times per day and you feel nauseated while drinking the 3rd cup of tea, back off from the tea. 2 cups of Sweet Wormwood tea is your limit. You can try to work your way up to a 3rd cup of Sweet Wormwood, just listen to your body and how it feels.
