African Forest Medicinals Wild Artemisia Tincture 50ml

Wild Artemisia Tincture

African Forest Medicinals Wild Artemisia Tincture is made from wild-harvested artemisia from our Knysna forest farm in the Western Cape.

The use of Artemisia is widely known amongst the Black people of South Africa, being a trusted remedy for coughs, colds and flu (often used as a steam inhalant) – and, in 2020, was famously used as the remedy that the Madagascan government had their army distribute to their citizens to protect them against or cure C*vid, rather than follow any of the mainstream recommendations being promoted at the time.

The Artemisia we use in our tincture is Artemisia afra, which is indigenous to South Africa. It is a potent variety and the taste is strong!

• Powerful anti-parasite
• Coughs, colds & flu remedy
• Treats digestive problems & infections of the GI tract.
• Is an emmenagogue which stimulates healthy menstrual bleeding
• Can also be used topically on infected wounds and skin infections
• Has been used to break fevers by inducing sweating
• Potent anti-tumour effect and can be used to treat cancer and, in particular, malignant ulcer
• Anti-inflammatory
• Anti-fungal
• Anti-viral, including Epstein-Barr
• Appears to alleviate any abnormal “shedding” effects

It is important that Artemisia tincture isn’t taken for longer than 7 consecutive days, at our recommended dose of 3 squirts of tincture, up to 3 times per day. If treating very acute conditions, such as malaria, however, then feel free to increase the dose frequency to every 2-3 hours until symptoms begin to subside. In general, artemisia is a very safe herb to take – although it is best avoided in the first trimester of pregnancy.
