Guest guest Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 I think this may be what you are looking for. http://www.wildernessfamilynaturals.com/store/wormwood.htm I have used it myself within the past month and had no problems with it, although I did not need to be as careful as you may need to be regarding GF issues. Call them and talk to them about it. Great people and very helpful. Ron > > Anyone know of a source? Thanks. > ~~Carolyn > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One possible drawback with this: I believe wormwood tinctures are traditionally made with just the leaves and flowers, but WFN provides the whole plant. Perhaps if it's not chopped up, though, you could just pick what you want out of the bag? Also, the active compounds in wormwood may not be so absorbable or active if it's not prepared properly, perhaps into a tincture. I don't know whether this is true of wormwood specifically, but it is true of many herbs. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a couple of southernwood plants once, dug them up to move them. Never got around to replanting them. Those suckers lived for two or three years sitting on concrete with nothing but about half their original root balls attached. Which not only says a lot about their indestructibility, but also about my procrastination skills. MFJ Once, poets were magicians. Poets were strong, stronger than warriors or kings - stronger than old hapless gods. And they will be strong once again. ~Greg Bear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
