Pure artemisinin or Qinghaosu, the active constituent of the herb Artemisia annua (sweet wormwood). Good quality Artemisia annua
contains 0.3-0.5% artemisinin, so pure artemisinin provides hundreds of
times more of the active constituent artemisinin than the whole herb
itself.
Allergy Research Group® introduced artemisinin to the
U.S. market more than a decade ago. Allergy Research Group does
independent potency assays on every batch (using HPLC), and independent
tests verify its effectiveness. Allergy Research Group artemisinin is
minimum 98.5% pure, and does not contain thujone.
Suggested use: As a dietary supplement, 1 or 2
capsules one or two times daily before meals, or as directed by a
healthcare practitioner. Sensitive individuals may want to take with
food.
CAUTION: Not indicated for pregnant or nursing women. Long
term administration (greater than 1 month) should be monitored by a
healthcare practitioner and include liver enzymes and hemoglobin
testing. Combining with antioxidants or iron may theoretically decrease
effectiveness. Detoxification reactions may be experienced by some
individuals. In rare cases may cause idiosyncratic liver dysfunction.
