In India Artemisia is known as Nagdauna. In Indian literatures the use of Nagdauna for cancerous wound has been reported. In Developing countries we are investing millions on traditional knowledge database but it is sad as well as surprising that no one is coming forward to support the traditional healers and knowledge.The healers are also the part of our society. 
 
In my region the healers use the insect feeding on Nagdauna as medicine for Epilepsy.
Traditional medicinal knowledge about Nysius ericae (Hemiptera : Lygaeiidae) feeding on Nagdauna (Artemisia vulgaris) in Chhattisgarh, India.

I am expecting more responses from the group members with their claims and information about traditional medicinal uses of Artemisia for cancer and associated troubles.
