Artemisia Annua was offered early in the Covid scam as helpful--a pubmed paper shows that the effect of artemisinin is greater when the whole plant is used, and not simply the 'artemisinin' itself. Who would have thought?

I've always questioned herbal "extracts" of plants (and by that I mean one aspect of the plant is removed and concentrated). I get it from a marketing perspective - trying to convince people something is more powerful because they have concentrated the 'active' ingredient. But, I think the creator was no fool and that plants/herbs have many benefits as a whole, not just their extracted parts.
