In recent times, the plant has been widely talked about: a documentary, television shows and a book have been dedicated, presenting it as a solution to end malaria. "Access to antimalarial drugs is a partial failure in many countries," says Lucile Cornet-Vernet, founder of La Maison de l'Artemisia and co-author of the book Artemisia, a plant to eradicate malaria (Ed Actes Sud). Why deprive yourself of an effective plant that everyone can grow in their garden? "
Artemisia annua is well known to scientists. "This plant has even made it possible to develop most of the treatments currently used," explains Philippe Deloron, research director at the Institute for Research for Development (IRD). It is indeed from Artemisia annua that is extracted artemisinin, a molecule capable of eliminating the parasite responsible for malaria (Plasmodium). This discovery was also awarded the Nobel Prize for medicine to Chinese Tu Youyou in 2015.
