Guinea Henweed or Anamu (Petiveria)
I first tasted this at the house of Brad Mayeaux and noted the resemblance to garlic which is good for those whom garlic gives gas. Guinea Henweed is a good, healthy substitute. A tropical plant, native to the Americas, it is known for its health benefits, particularly in traditional medicine. It is believed to possess strong anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties, which support the immune system, reduce pain, and combat infections. Anamu has been used in herbal medicine to treat a variety of ailments, including respiratory issues, arthritis, and digestive problems. The bioactive compounds Anamu contains have anticancer effects, potentially inhibiting the growth of tumors. Once established, the plant will reseed itself and can also be propogated from cuttings.
