Organic Chamomile Flower

Chamomile is a flowering plant native to Europe and Western Asia. The flowers are dried and often used to make herbal teas or extracts. It is known for its delicate, apple-like aroma and flavor.

Chamomile is primarily used as a flavoring agent in beverages, especially herbal teas. It is also found in some baked goods and desserts for its subtle taste. Manufacturers add it to provide a calming flavor profile.

Chamomile is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a flavoring. It is commonly consumed in teas, and some studies suggest it may have calming or sleep-promoting effects, though more research is needed. The WHO has evaluated chamomile, and EFSA has also assessed its safety. Evidence on its health effects is mixed and ongoing.
