A weed to some, an herb to others, Epazote is a plant with a longstanding history of use. In Mexico and parts of South America, Epazote is widely recognized as a herb and is most commonly used with black beans but it is also used to flavor a variety of dishes.
Epazote gets one of its other names, wormseed, from its long-standing and widespread use as a vermifuge. It was even included as such in the U.S. Pharmacopoeia from 1820 to 1947.
Tea made from the plant is also said to have a variety of effects.
