Medicinal plant of the Gods
The new star among natural remedies!
Before the Nobel Prize for Medicine was awarded to the Chinese pharmacologist Tu Youyou in 2015, probably only a few had heard about "Artemisia annua". This medicinal plant has been used by traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for centuries as an effective remedy against malaria and other serious diseases. The latest studies even suggest that the “crown jewel from the treasury of TCM” also shows promising effects on diabetes, cancer, HIV infection and even Covid-19. In addition to the active ingredient artemisinin, the "miracle plant" contains over 600 ingredients that are important to health, have antibacterial, antiviral and immune stimulating effects and are almost free of side effects. The high ORAC value, which describes the plant's antioxidant potential, is also impressive: the ability to remove free radicals from circulation protects against degenerative diseases such as rheumatism and osteoarthritis. Artemisia annua can also- in addition to their effect on diabetes and cancer - help with allergies, Lyme disease, inflammation and against parasites and fungal infections. Artemisia annua is taken both preventively to strengthen the immune system and for self-treatment in the form of tea, powder or capsules. This guide offers information
