  • Most of the artemisias are medicinal. They have been used for thousands of years by herbalists from East Asia and Siberia to Europe and North America. The Greek physicians more than 2,500 years ago noted their useful bitter qualities and how the artemisias can be important for good health. Bitter herbs like artemisia kick-start the digestive system, stimulate the liver, and boost the immune system. Carmen Lynde, a practicing medical herbalist with a full-time herbal clinic in Toronto, explains why we may need to be taking bitter artemisias like wormwood, santonica and mugwort, as our lives become more sedentary and our body's systems become sluggish. Besides running a busy practice, Carmen is creator of Vervain.ca, an organic plant-based skincare line made by hand in small batches. She also serves as Richters online medical herbs expert. This seminar was presented as part of the annual Herb Day celebration at Richters on May 4, 2014.

      Interesting. Thanks for sharing. Like Artemisia annua, the African herb Cryptolepis is a potent anti-malarial also, and there is a clinical trial under way to test its possible effectiveness against Covid. Is there a connection between malaria and Covid? It's hard to see how there could be because the two are caused by very different pathogens; but we may yet be surprised.

Are they close enough to contain similar useful constituents? idk The Encyclopedia of Psychoactive Plants sheds no light on the differences. Mugwort does not have its own entry but does appear in other Artemisia spp. articles. For instance, Artemisia mexicana is said to be a subspecies of the North American western mugwort and some botanists believe Artemisia mexicana is a variety or subspecies of Artemisia absinthium and more potently psychoactive than absinthium.

    • @richtersherbs
      @richtersherbs  Před 2 lety +4

      We would be cautious about long term use of wormwood as a daily tea. Some varieties contain small amounts of thujone which has been blamed for certain effects of long term use of absinthe, the alcoholic liquor made with wormwood extracts. But whether in fact thujone in absinthe is problem is controversial among scientists: some believe it has nothing to do with absinthe's effects because there is too little thujone in wormwood to have any real effect. We know that wormwood has been used in medicine and in alcoholic drinks for more than a thousand years and that is, we believe, powerful evidence that it is safe to use; because if it weren't mankind would have turned away from it long ago. For now, we suggest that wormwood be used on an occasional basis, perhaps a few days or weeks at a time to help with your anxiety or insomnia.

      While many artemisias are known to repel or kill a broad range of insect pests such as carrot flies, fleas and cabbage moths, they are not known to repel cockroaches. That said, it may be worth trying a spray made with wormwood anyway since the herb has interesting repellent properties. You may also want to try a natural non-herbal product called diatomaceous earth. From direct experience we know that works really well on cockroaches.
