New Roots Herbal’s Wormwood Tincture is a liquid extract made from true Artemisia absinthium, the authentic wormwood, and not a substitute species. It is traditionally used in herbal medicine as a vermifuge for pinworms (also called threadworms) and roundworms, and as a bitter tonic to enhance digestion. With age-specific dosing from age 2+, one bottle could serve the whole family.

True Wormwood, Clearly Identified

True Wormwood, Clearly Identified

Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) is a silvery, intensely bitter perennial woven through European herbal practice for centuries, and its very name nods to its long history against intestinal worms. It is traditionally used in herbal medicine as a bitter tonic, to support digestion, and as a vermifuge for roundworms and threadworms, also known as pinworms.

Not every “wormwood” you see on the shelves is the same plant; some tinctures are made from Artemisia annua, also known as Sweet Annie, which is a different species. New Roots Herbal uses exclusively true Artemisia absinthium. Each teaspoon (5 ml) provides the crude equivalent of 1,000 mg of wormwood herb in its liquid tincture made with organic sugarcane alcohol, purified water, with no fillers.

The liquid form makes age-specific dosing simple for children, teens, and adults. Doses are small, measured in drops to teaspoons according to age, and can be stirred into a little water or juice to help soften the herb’s naturally sharp bitterness.

Times When Wormwood Could Fit the Routine

  • Meals leave you feeling heavy or sluggish afterward
  • Appetite feels low before sitting down to eat
  • Nighttime anal itching disrupts sleep or comfort
  • Tiny thread-like worms are noticed
  • Similar symptoms appear within the household
Times When Wormwood Could Fit the Routine

The Right Timing Matters

Bitter tonics work through taste. As wormwood’s bitter compounds meet the receptors on your tongue, they’re understood to signal the digestive system ahead of a meal, which is why a dose is taken about 30 minutes before eating. A capsule slips past the palate entirely, but a liquid never does. For its traditional vermifuge use, Wormwood Tincture is taken on an empty stomach, according to the age-specific dose, three times daily, as part of a short-term herbal routine. In practical terms, intestinal worms leave the body through normal bowel movements, but with pinworms, you may not notice them. Adult worms are small and thread-like, while eggs are microscopic, so consistent label-directed use and household hygiene matter more than waiting for obvious visual signs in the stool.

Who Can Benefit from Wormwood Tincture

  • Parents tackling a household pinworm episode
  • Returning travellers with worm concerns
  • Families wanting one liquid herb suitable across multiple ages
  • Adults who enjoy a bitter before meals

Get the Most out of Wormwood Tincture

Break the Reinfection Cycle

Break the Reinfection Cycle

Pinworm eggs spread easily, so wash bed linens in hot water and keep fingernails short and clean. A morning shower removes eggs laid overnight and reduces the chance of reinfection.

Befriend Bitter Foods

Befriend Bitter Foods

Reintroduce naturally bitter greens like dandelion, arugula, and radicchio to your plate. Keeping your palate accustomed to bitterness supports the same premeal signalling a bitter relies on.

Pause before the First Bite

Pause before the First Bite

Sit down, breathe, and take in the aroma of your food for a moment before eating. This brief anticipation switches on the body’s earliest digestive responses, long before your fork lands.
