Get it while it’s hot!

Reminds me of the patent medicines that abounded in the US about 100-150 years ago. Cures your lumbago, too.

Sweet Wormwood
From: https://www.canceractive.com/article/Artemisinin-and-cancer,-yeasts-and-parasites
” . . . Super-herb Artemisinin kills cancer cells, yeasts, parasites, pathogens like E coli, and viruses
Artemisia annua, or Sweet Wormwood, is a herb found from Pakistan to China, and is the current treatment of choice for malaria. The highest concentration of active ingredient is found in the leaves and flowers. There are 14 other Artemisia species. It was originally used in Traditional Chinese Medicine where it was called Qing Hao. The species Artemesia has a number of active derivatives - artemisinin and analogs artemether and artesunate being the three most commonly used.
1. Artemisinin is the most potent anti-malarial treatment available
Malaria kills at least 1 million people across the world each year. Artemisia annua, or Sweet Wormwood, is the most effective treatment, especially as the potency of certain drugs has continued to fail. The plant came to the fore in the swamps and rain forests of the Vietnam war. The Viet-Cong used Artemesia to beat malaria. The Americans took their pills.
The exact understanding of how it works is not fully clear but the ingredient artemisinin seems to attack the mitochodrial membranes of the parasite Plasmodium which causes malaria in humans(1).”

yup
I’ve seen your posts. I was a little skeptical but not as much now.
Is this the same as Artemisia absinthium?
They are related but I don’t know if their actions are the same.
Sweet Wormwood is Artemisia annua.
One caveat to that. Common names of plants often apply to numerous plants, even plants from different families, so Artemisia absinthium may be called Sweet Wormwood also for all I know.
[[Artemisia, a plant used to treat malaria]]
That is a pretty rugged herb- strong side effects for some- researcvh it before jumping into it- they use this for combating lyme disease, and babesia too- (a sub parasite that one gets from tick bites too)
Yes- the same substance that was banned because of serious side effects-
I was gonna say it must be the Zinc in the tea but that would be cruel.
Sometimes I regret having ethical boundaries. I could SO make a fortune right now in Homeopathic Zinc and Selenium Supplements. I could come up with an entire line of “Zinc Pore” augmentation by Homeopathic Principles.
Sounds like a balm. Not trying it unless a maestro says to try it.

If I turn on my TV I’m sure I’ll find Jim Bakker selling this.
