Even as a dried plant, artemisia gives off a very herbal fragrance, a sign of quality. If this disturbs you, keep your sachet in an airtight jar.

Properties and virtues ofArtemisia annua:

Artemisia annua has a wide range of properties for treating both serious infectious diseases and everyday ailments: repellent, digestive, healing, antipyretic, anticancer, antifungal, antispasmodic, diuretic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiparasitic.

PreparingArtemisia annua tea :

AsArtemisia annua tea is very finely ground, we recommend infusing it through a very fine-mesh filter.

This fineness ensures a faster infusion. If the bitterness seems too pronounced, you can add a few sage leaves, a sprig of thyme, a spoonful of honey...

To make an infusion, use 5 grams per liter, to infuse for 5 to 15 minutes.
. The dosage should naturally be determined according to the severity of the pathology and the age of the person concerned. You need to test, experiment, be patient and listen carefully.

Artemisia annua was the featured plant in the 2019 edition of the "Cultivate Us! For the liberation of medicinal plants" campaign.
