Benefits
Artemisia capillaris also known as “Capilarius herba” has a 2,000-year history of use in Chinese herbal medicine. Said to be beneficial in relieving fevers and cleansing the liver. Modern research has “supposedly” confirmed that the plant has a tonic and strengthening effect upon the liver, gallbladder and entire digestive system. It is also said to “possibly” be helpful in relieving dizziness, symptoms of the common cold, nausea, loss of appetite and headaches. More scientific study and research is needed.
In recent history, artemisia capillaris has become a popular ingredient in herbal smoking blends.
