A routine blood test over 3 years ago showed elevated white blood cells, specifically neutrophils. The doctors suspected an active infection, but at the time I had no symptoms of infection anywhere so they referred me to internal medicine.

After more than two years of different tests, they had not found the possible origin and the white blood cells were still high. They considered doing a bone marrow puncture but for the moment they had postponed it and we were waiting to monitor the evolution.

I started taking Artemisia annua because I read that it had regulatory effects on the immune system. Since white blood cells are part of the immune system, I decided to give it a try. I started by taking 2 daily infusions of artemisia for 9 days, then we rested for another 9-10 days and then I repeated another 9 days of 2 daily infusions. It wasn't until I had my blood tests repeated recently that I found out that my white blood cells had returned to completely normal values ​​(after more than 3 years!).

Although I didn't know the reason why they were elevated, I was somewhat worried and the truth is that now I feel calmer thanks to this wonderful plant. In this case I was looking for its regulatory effect on the immune system and I hope to confirm it completely when I have my next blood test.

From now on I will try to spread the word about the properties of this plant as much as I can, referring people to the La Dolça website so that they have adequate information. Thank you very much once again for doing what you do and for making this and many other interesting plants known to us.
