Artemisinin solo

I haven't used that brand, I used AllergyResearch Group Art.

So, I did 4 days on and 11 days off


You know it needs to be pulsed?

The whole herb Artemisia doesn't need to be - but yes, the Artemisinin does.


The small intestine can develop an enzyme that renders the Art useless if taken too many days in a row.

LLMD's don't seem to agree on how long it takes.

The shortest amount of time I've seen - is LLMD MR who says no more than 3 days.
Other LLMD's say a week.

Dr. J in DC has me doing it MWF week 1 and 5 straight days week 2. I think the important thing is you aren't taking it daily for weeks on end.

Yes, LLMDs do not agree on this, and, if I remember correctly, there are only a couple studies that state it should be pulsed.

My brother is seeing a practitioner who has him taking it constantly. I personally have taken it for months on end at high doses because if I quit I felt bad. If it becomes ineffective after only several days, then a person should feel diminishing benefit once they pass the 5-day mark. I have not seen this effect with myself or with others.

Just my observations.
