Frontier Natural Products Organic Wormwood Herb — certified organic Artemisia absinthium, cut and sifted, one of the most powerful and historically significant bitter herbs in Western herbal medicine, traditionally used to support digestion, liver and gallbladder function, and as a traditional antiparasitic remedy. USDA Organic (certified by QAI), non-irradiated, Kosher. 100g, repackaged by SuperfoodsNZ.
Why
Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) is one of the most intensely bitter herbs known — and that bitterness is precisely the source of its therapeutic value. Used in traditional European, Middle Eastern, and Chinese herbal medicine for thousands of years, wormwood has a long history of use as a digestive bitter, liver tonic, and antiparasitic herb. Its key active compounds include absinthin and artabsin (the bitter sesquiterpene lactones responsible for its intense flavour and digestive-stimulating action), thujone (a volatile essential oil with potent biological activity — see Warnings), and flavonoids with antioxidant properties. As a digestive bitter, wormwood stimulates the production of digestive enzymes, bile, and gastric acid — supporting healthy digestion, appetite, and liver and gallbladder function. It has also been traditionally used as one of the primary herbs in antiparasitic protocols, particularly for intestinal worms and parasites. Frontier’s wormwood is certified organic, non-irradiated, and cut and sifted for versatile use in teas, tinctures, and herbal preparations. Repackaged from bulk by SuperfoodsNZ into a convenient 100g resealable pack. Please read the Warnings section carefully before use — this is a potent herb not suitable for everyone.
