Very good for cancer with high replication rate
“Artemisinin reacts with iron to form free radicals that kill cells. Since cancer cells uptake relatively larger amounts of iron than normal cells, they are more susceptible to the toxic effect of artemisinin. In previous research, we have shown that artemisinin is more drawn to cancer cells than to normal cells. In the present research, we covalently attached artemisinin to the iron-carrying plasma glycoprotein transferrin.Transferrin is transported into the cells via receptor-mediated endocytosis and cancer cells express significantly more transferrin receptors on their cell surface and endocytose more transferrin than normal cells. Thus, we hypothesize that by tagging artemisinin to transferrin, both iron and artemisinin would be transported into cancer cells in one package. Once inside a cell, iron is released and can readily react with artemisinin close by tagged to the transferrin. This would enhance the toxicity and selectivity of artemisinin towards cancer cells.

Hi
I wish it was as effective as many claim. I used to run a free cancer clinic in NZ and that particular herb I found to be the least effective. We even made a bracelet with the herb imprinted in it which are still available from the USA but event that wasn’t all that effective.
There are many better herbs that Arti on its own. When Arti is part of a formula it works better I do use it in formulas but on its own virtually useless

I kinda agree to that it can kill on its own
