CHAMOMILE TEA

DESCRIPTION

• Chamomile tea is a popular herbal tea made from the dried flowers of the chamomile plant, which belongs to the daisy family. It has been used for centuries as a natural remedy for various health conditions, including anxiety, insomnia, digestive problems, and skin irritation.

• Chamomile tea has a delicate, floral flavor with a subtle sweetness and a mild, calming effect. It contains several compounds that are thought to have therapeutic effects, including chamazulene, apigenin, and bisabolol. These compounds have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and relaxing properties, which may explain chamomile tea's health benefits.

• Some of the potential health benefits of chamomile tea include reducing anxiety and depression, promoting relaxation and better sleep, reducing inflammation, improving digestion, and boosting the immune system. It may also help to lower blood sugar levels and improve heart health.
