Hello. My girlfriend has a postdoc interview over skype. The email she received instructed her to handshake the interviewer a few days before...
Wormwood is an herb. The above-ground plant parts and oil are used for medicine. Wormwood is used for various digestion problems such as loss of appetite, upset stomach, gall bladder disease, and intestinal spasms.Wormwood is also used to treat fever, liver disease, and worm infections; to increase sexual desire; as a tonic; and to stimulate sweating.ormwood oil is also used for digestive disorders, to increase sexual desire, and to stimulate the imagination. Some people apply wormwood directly to the skin for healing wounds and insect bites. Wormwood oil is used as a counterirritant to reduce pain.
Wormwood is created by the pine beetle out of rough (second cut) pine. Wormwood gives an antique and rustic look to furniture or doors, adding character to any piece. A lot of our wormwood comes from Michoacan, Mexico, from very old house beams and posts called trojes. Some of our wormwood can be dated to the 19th century. Our wormwood is carefully selected and then fumigated in special chambers to ensure it is safe and resilient. It is then styled into our furniture and door designs. What is remarkable about our wormwood artifacts is their durability despite their age.
