In Ancient times, Wormwood was considered to counteract the effects of poisoning by hemlock, toadstools and the biting of the seadragon. The plant was also used by the Mexicans who celebrated their great festival of the Goddess of Salt by a ceremonial dance of women, who wore on their heads garlands of Wormwood.
Wormwood is one of the bitterest herbs known, but it used to be much desired by brewers instead of hops.
Wormwood can be toxic if taken internally in large quantities. Use with caution. |
