Artemisia annua is an aromatic plant belonging to the Asteraceae family, found 
around Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America. The World Health Organization
has recommended A. annua as an antimalarial drug. Numerous phytochemical 
classes, such as phenolics, flavonoids, steroids, coumarins, triterpenoids,
monoterpenoids, lipids, aliphatic compounds, lignans, as well as fatty acids, have 
been found through phytochemical investigation. The plant was chosen due to a
well-researched biological study that revealed it to have antimalarial, antioxidant,
antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and immunosuppressive
activity. This review focuses on the phytochemical components of this significant
and beneficial plant, as well as the various promising biological activities that make
the plant a good candidate for developing pharmaceutical products. Definitively, the
plant extract of A. annua is a good source of health-promoting aspects that can be
employed for curative and nutritional purposes. However, more research on the 
active chemicals of this plant is needed to optimize their medicinal and nutritional
potential
