What is Chamomile?
Chamomile (Matricaria recutita) is among the gentlest and oldest calming herbs. Its flavonoid apigenin binds to the same brain receptors as mild anti-anxiety medication, which underpins its traditional use for nervous tension, winding down before bed, and an upset stomach. Modest clinical trials show standardized chamomile extract can reduce symptoms of generalized anxiety and improve sleep quality, while the tea is a soothing low-dose option. It is very well tolerated. People with ragweed allergy should be cautious, and high doses are best avoided alongside blood thinners. Extracts standardized to apigenin, around 400 to 500 mg in the evening, are typical.
A gentle calming herb whose apigenin binds relaxation receptors, used for mild anxiety, sleep, and digestion.
