Full Spectrum Sweet Wormwood (Artemisia annua)

Also known as Sweet Annie, Chinese Wormwood or Sweet Wormwood, Artemisia annua has long been a traditional favorite to support the body’s defenses in China, and is now becoming more popular worldwide thanks to an increase in interest in what this annual herbaceous plant may have to offer for optimizing human wellness. Swanson Full Spectrum Wormwood capsules feature 100% pure artemisia powder for traditional wellness support.

While research has identified many bioactive constituents in Wormwood, the most exciting is artemisinin, which is found in the leaves of the plant. While this amount varies with each batch, the dried leaves have been found to typically contain around 1% artemisinin.

In addition, Artemisia annua also contains a varied nutritional profile with the presence of amino acids, vitamins and minerals and essential elements for health and may contain secondary metabolites such as monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes and phenolic compounds, which provide antioxidant support.
