Queen Tee's Premium Wormwood Parasite Cleanser Tincture

Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) — a distinctive, aromatic herb — is prized for its bitter, herbaceous flavor and a history of both culinary and medicinal use. Most famously associated with absinthe, wormwood also offers compounds that have attracted scientific and traditional interest for potential health effects.

What’s in wormwood

• Thujone: A neuroactive compound historically linked to wormwood’s antiparasitic reputation and its strong, bitter character. Thujone is one reason wormwood was used against intestinal worms.

• Chamazulene: An antioxidant that helps protect cells from oxidative stress and may contribute to anti-inflammatory activity.

• Artemisinin-related constituents: These compounds have been studied for anti-inflammatory effects, including possible inhibition of cytokines—immune proteins that drive inflammation.

Traditional and modern uses

• Digestive and antiparasitic: Historically used (including in Ancient Egypt) to treat intestinal parasites.

• Anti-inflammatory and analgesic: Traditionally applied for pain relief and inflammation; some constituents show activity that supports these uses.

• Culinary: Used sparingly for its bitter, aromatic profile—most famously in absinthe and in some bitters and herbal blends.

Important safety information

• Consult your doctor before using wormwood, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, have a chronic condition, or take medications.

• High doses can cause serious side effects: digestive upset, kidney injury, nausea, vomiting, and seizures.

• Thujone is neuroactive; products with high thujone concentrations are particularly risky.

• Small amounts (for example, in tea or culinary uses) generally pose less risk, but exercise caution and avoid long-term high-dose use.
