I may have asked this before but I can't remember,
Is it true that you pulse Artemisinin but take Artemesia continuously?

i think you are right because here is my logic..
i have read that babesia can develop a resistance to ArtemiSININ so you pulse it to prevent that, but that babesia is very unlikely, if not able to develop a resistance to ArtemeSIA so you do not need to pulse, but rather up your dosage slowly.
Hope this helps, im sure someone will chime in with a link to some extremely helpful info.

Simply put, Artemisinin is the major active compound derived from the "Artemesia annua" plant, known for having powerful if harsh anti-pathogenic benefits, especially regarding protozoa.
