The listing, Organic Dried Wormwood Herb 0.6 oz has ended.

Grown in my garden in Florida.

Wormwood has traditionally been taken to treat pinworms. For that use it is often recommended to take on an empty stomach.

Wormwood is especially recommended for people struggling with a weak digestion. This herb stimulates the appetite.

Drink a cup of wormwood tea for this purpose. A half teaspoon crushed leaves is enough for a cup of tea. Wormwood tea does not taste very good. It is quite bitter.

About 20 drops of wormwood tincture added to a glass of water is said to do wonders for an upset stomach.

To make wormwood tincture add 60% alcohol to a jar filled with dried wormwood flowers and leaves. Strain the mixture a week or so later and your wormwood tincture is ready.

Some like to burn dried wormwood leaves. The fumes are said to be cleanse the air. Wormwood tea can be poured on rocks in a sauna for the same purpose.

Externally wormwood has been used to treat bruises and insect bites.

Women who are pregnant or are breastfeeding should not use wormwood. As always consult your physician if you have any concerns
