Wormwood

Wormwood c/s ( also called absinthe)

Wormwood is a strong bitter that affects the bitter-sensing taste buds on the tongue which stimulates the whole digestive system (salivation, stomach acid production, intestinal tract movement, etc.). This bitter taste also stimulates the production of bile by the liver. The compounds in wormwood have anti-inflammatory activity, insecticidal and have anti-tumor activity. The toxin thujone (which is in wormwood) is a brain stimulant. Wormwood also has anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, carminative, tonic (restores tone to tissues), antibacterial, antifungal, anti-amoebic, hepatoprotective (prevents and cures liver damage), febrifugal (reduces fever), and vermifugal (expels intestinal worms) activities.

General use

Wormwood is used to eliminate intestinal worms, especially pinworms and roundworms. It is also used as an insect repellent, insecticide which can be used in gardens and on pets.Wormwood is also helpful in treating gall bladder inflammation, hepatitis, jaundice, fever, infections, and mild depression. Wormwood may also protect the liver from harmful chemicals and stimulate menstruation or miscarriage. It has been used to treat the pains associated with childbirth, muscle aches, arthritic joints, sprains, and broken bones.

Wormwood has a "checkered" past : absinthe. This clear green alcoholic beverage, which contains essential oil of wormwood is highly toxic and presently banned in many countries. A favorite liqueur in nineteenth-century France, absinthe was addictive and associated with a collection of serious side effects known as absinthism (irreversible damage to the central nervous system).Thujone is the toxic element in wormwood that causes absinthism . Wormwood soaked in white wine is used to produce the liqueur called vermouth (derived from the German word for wormwood, Wermuth), which contains very little thujone.

Wormwood may be taken as a tea , as a tincture (an alcohol solution), or in pill form. Wormwood should be taken only under the supervision of a professional. It should be taken in small doses as directed, and for no longer than four to five weeks at a time.

SIDE EFFECTS

The tea can be prepared by steeping 0.5-2 tsp of wormwood in 1 cup of boiling-hot water for 10-15 minutes. The usual dosage is 3 cups daily, for a period not to exceed four weeks.Significant side effects are not encountered when wormwood is taken in small doses for only two to four weeks. One report stated, however, that using as much as 1 mL of wormwood tincture three times a day for up to nine months caused no side effects.

The U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) states that wormwood may cause neurological symptoms, including delirium, paralysis, loss of intellect, and numbness of the legs and arms. The side effects associated with absinthism include auditory (hearing) and visual (seeing) hallucinations; tremors and convulsions; sleeplessness; paralysis; stomach problems; brain damage; and an increased risk of psychological disorders and suicide.

Jackie I am for anything that helps us honey, but this one is best left to the experts. Some one with a degree in Naturopathy (sp?) rather than one of us youngun's. This stuff is down right scary. You have to measure it in such precise dosages it is dangerous for non-professionals to mess with. Oh yeah you can use it in pillows to repel fleas and ticks. But to ingest it I would rather a professional do it make the capsules or tea formulas up for me than do it myself. Back in college during Gen X period of time, I was interning for my Psych. Degree at a youth center for teens for addiction problems. This was one of the problems that we had in teens during that time. Did you know that among other things this was one of the things that Edgar Poe was addicted to??? The absinthe. It is kind of weird, it greenish , luminance in color. Said to taste something

like licorice. Anyway I am reserving judgement on it, till I have a professional tell me it is okay to use.

Absolutely Janet,, What I was saying is that perhaps they found a different way to use it in iron overload and I had never heard of it used that way so I was going to research it.. thats all,, I think that this could be dangerous as well... that was all I was saying... from what Sheena posted, I saw that info as well and it certainly didnt say anything about iron overload,, thats what I meant,, that article was not written recently so I wanted to look further.. so I was not going to say anything one way or the other until I researched it more... but I dont think I will bother with it,, as it probably is not a safe herb for those of us with hep c... and if anyone "wanted" to use this, I'd recommend they see an ND as well....

I've got some ia which is black walnut, cloves, and wormwood. I read about it on the curezone.com it supposed kill tapeworms,parasites etc. I got it when I first found out I had Hep c and wanted to kill every varmit I had in my body that wasn't supposed to be there. I never got around to doing it. Hilda (naturalpathic Doctor) said to do a liver cleanse first. That kicked my ass, drinking all that olive oil. I need to do another cleanse.

Steve, What was your experience with the liver cleanse? I have heard several other people who said that the olive oil and lemon juice caused them to pass several stones and or grit from their gallbladder.. I wanted to try it but so far, have settled on drinking lemon in my water, lol,, I have heard of Hilda but I have also read some things about lawsuits against her so I honestly dont know too much about her .. but please be careful with wormwood, it sounds like it could be dangerous if you dont know exactly what you are doing,, and I DONT, lol... steve brewer <brewmon2003@...> wrote: I've got some ia which is black walnut, cloves, and wormwood.

Wormwood also has anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, carminative, tonic (restores tone to tissues), antibacterial, antifungal, anti-amoebic, hepatoprotective (prevents and cures liver damage), febrifugal (reduces fever), and vermifugal (expels intestinal worms) activities. General use Wormwood is used to eliminate intestinal worms, especially pinworms and roundworms. It is also used as an insect repellent, insecticide which can be used in gardens and on pets.Wormwood is also helpful in treating gall bladder inflammation, hepatitis, jaundice, fever, infections, and mild depression. Wormwood

may also protect the liver from harmful chemicals and stimulate menstruation or miscarriage. It has been used to treat the pains associated with childbirth, muscle aches, arthritic joints, sprains, and broken bones. Wormwood has a "checkered" past : absinthe. This clear green alcoholic beverage, which contains essential oil of wormwood is highly toxic and presently banned in many countries. A favorite liqueur in nineteenth-century France, absinthe was addictive and associated with a collection of serious side effects known as absinthism (irreversible damage to the central nervous system).Thujone is the toxic element in wormwood that causes absinthism . Wormwood soaked in white wine is used to produce the liqueur called vermouth (derived from the German word for wormwood, Wermuth), which contains very little thujone. Wormwood may be taken as a tea , as a tincture (an alcohol solution), or in pill form. Wormwood should be taken only under the

supervision of a professional. It should be taken in small doses as directed, and for no longer than four to five weeks at a time. SIDE EFFECTS The tea can be prepared by steeping 0.5-2 tsp of wormwood in 1 cup of boiling-hot water for 10-15 minutes. The usual dosage is 3 cups daily, for a period not to exceed four weeks.Significant side effects are not encountered when wormwood is taken in small doses for only two to four weeks. One report stated, however, that using as much as 1 mL of wormwood tincture three times a day for up to nine months caused no side effects. The U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) states that wormwood may cause neurological symptoms, including delirium, paralysis, loss of intellect, and numbness of the legs and arms. The side effects associated with absinthism include auditory (hearing) and visual (seeing) hallucinations; tremors and convulsions; sleeplessness; paralysis; stomach problems; brain

damage; and an increased risk of psychological disorders and suicide.

leaches do work by eating ONLY the bad flesh and blood, and so they help to remove it so it wont continue to infect healthy skin... they really do work even tho they look awful,, and they dont hurt either because they secrete an enzyme that numbs the area they are attached too..anne <kanga2@...> wrote: They make look icky but at least they'd be painless!

Wormwood is a pretty invasive plant, smelly too but not really all that bad. It

can be used to make Absynth (the real stuff, not what they sell in the liquor

stores in the US.) and can also be used as a dewormer but can cause abortions in

both the animal eating it and by humans consuming the milk from that animal.

It has other uses too but those are the top two I know of.

Have lots and it is harder to kill than lillies!!! I have tried! :`)
