Chamomile And Rosemary Extracts

Chamomile and rosemary extracts are natural compounds derived from the chamomile flower and the rosemary plant, respectively. These extracts are typically produced through methods like solvent extraction or steam distillation to isolate their beneficial compounds.

These extracts are primarily used as natural flavoring agents and antioxidants in food products. They can add subtle herbal notes and help preserve the freshness and quality of items like baked goods, beverages, and confectionery.

Chamomile and rosemary extracts are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are often consumed in small amounts as part of a varied diet. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated various plant extracts for safety, but specific evaluations for this combined extract may vary. Research suggests potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, though more studies are needed to confirm these effects at typical dietary intake levels.
