A few words about Artemisia Annua
Origin and cultivation of the organic Artemisia Annua plant: used in China for centuries
Artemisia annua, from its Latin name, Artemisia Annua L, and the Chinese name, Qing hao, is also known as annual mugwort, is a medicinal plant in the Asteraceae family. It is native to Eurasia, and is found in temperate and subtropical zones. Artemisia thrives on clay or slightly alkaline soils, and enjoys plenty of sunshine. Annual mugwort has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries to help treat certain diseases, thanks to its main active component, artemisinin.
Other designations for Artemisia Annua:
- Chinese wormwood,
- Artemisia,
- Artemisinin,
- Artemisia annua L,
- Artemisia,
- Annual wormwood.
How does treatment with Artemisia work? What are the properties and benefits of the Artemisia Annua plant?
Antioxidant and immune system-boosting action
Plant powder is a more effective treatment than herbal tea because the lactones and flavonoids it contains are not very soluble in water.
The peroxide function of Artemisia annua's artemisin molecule reacts with iron ions, releasing a free oxygen radical that is extremely oxidizing and fatal to iron-rich cells. This explains the destruction of blood parasites (Plasmodium falciparum) or their strong inhibition and destruction of cell proliferation. Other substances contained in the whole plant act synergistically for superior efficacy, making it a multi-therapy plant.
Artemisia Annua L is said to improve the entire intestinal system and stimulate the appetite
Artemisia annua would be an effective treatment for malaria, all the more so as, despite their potency, some drugs continue to fail. Exactly how this works is not entirely clear, but it appears to attack the mitochondrial membranes of malaria.
Artemisinin could probably effectively treat yeast infection
Yeast infections are common in the West. Around 70% of humans suffer from them at some point in their lives. Artemisinin is a treatment for such problems.
Artemisinin potentially helps kill parasites
Artemisinin could potentially help eliminate and treat cell proliferation. Research suggests that artemisinin may help to eliminate and treat cell proliferations proliferation, especially when linked to iron. Because these cells like iron, they ingest the iron-artemisinin mixture. When bound to iron, artemisinin is potentially 34,000 times more effective at killing these cells. And according to studies published in journals such as Life Sciences, Cancer Letters and Anticancer Drugsartemisinin could help eliminate cell proliferation at a rate of 12,000 cells for each healthy cell.
Artemisia Annua leaf extract is said to have potent antioxidant activity and probable cytotoxicity against leukemia cells.
Artemisia could perhaps help in the treatment of people with leukemia. Given that many diseases are precipitated by intestinal problems, long courses of antibiotics or drugs for recurrent illnesses, artemisinin is always a herb to consider for treatment.
Which parts of the plant are used?
Advantages of organic food products based on Artemisia Annua
After growing in a natural environment, Artemisia annua plants, rich in active ingredients, are harvested and air-dried. Only the leaves of the plant are used, as they are the parts richest in active ingredients.
The leaves are carefully harvested, gently air-dried and then ground, a process which ensures that the precious active ingredients of Artemisia Annua leaves are present in highly concentrated form in the powder, which is then encapsulated.
Artemisia leaves
A highly specialized extraction process concentrates the beneficial phytonutrients found in Artemisia annua. This extraction process maintains the plant's active components without the use of harsh chemicals to extract them. The result is a concentrated form of Artemisia annua powder that helps relieve joint pain associated with arthritis.
Guaranteed quality and absence of harmful chemicals
Raw materials are micronized during the extraction process, i.e. they are ground to a particle size of around 60 microns, without being heated.

Artemisinin is a potent herb and should only be used for short periods and rarely for more than 4 weeks at a time, although anti-malarial doses have had few side effects.
There may be contraindications, for example with the use of antioxidants or anti-inflammatory drugs, and also with chemotherapy, so it's best not to combine or take any drugs without first checking for possible interference. These effects generally manifest themselves as nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea, and last about 4 to 6 days.
