Artemisia annua - Medicinal plant of the gods

Artemisia annua - Medicinal plant of the gods (German)

In addition to the active ingredient artemisinin, the "miracle plant" contains more than 600 health-related ingredients, which have an antibacterial, antiviral and immune-stimulating effect and are almost free of side effects. The high ORAC value, which describes the antioxidant potential of the plant, is also impressive: the ability to scavenge free radicals protects against degenerative diseases such as rheumatism or arthrosis. In addition to its effect on diabetes and cancer, Artemisia annua can also help with allergies, Lyme disease, inflammation and against parasites and fungal infections. Annual mugwort is taken both preventively to strengthen the immune system and for self-treatment in the form of tea, powder or capsules.
