Artemisinin by Nutricology/Allergy Research Group
Description of Artemisinin Pure artemisinin or Qinghaosu,
the active constituent of the herb Artemesia annua (sweet
wormwood). Good quality Artemesia annua contains 0.3-0.5%
artemisinin, so pure Artemisinin provides hundreds of times more
of the active constituent artemisinin than the whole herb
itself. Research has shown artemisinin to be particularly
beneficial in balancing the microbiology of the GI tract.
Suggested Use for Artemisinin As a dietary supplement,
1-2 capsules one or two times daily before meals, or as directed
by a healthcare practitioner. Sensitive individuals may want to
take with food.
Warning for Artemisinin Contraindicated for pregnant or
nursing women. Artemisinin produces
an oxidizing effect in the
stomach and intestines. Long term administration greater than 2
or 3 months should be monitored by a healthcare practitioner.
Combining with antioxidants or iron may theoretically decrease
effectiveness. Detoxification reactions may be experienced by
some individuals.
