Organic Chamomile Flowers

Chamomile is a flowering plant in the daisy family. It grows in Europe, Asia, and North Africa. The flowers are typically dried and used to make herbal teas or extracts.

Chamomile is most often used as a flavoring agent in teas and beverages. It is valued for its mild, apple-like flavor and aroma. It is also sometimes used in baked goods and desserts.

Chamomile is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is commonly consumed in herbal teas, often for its calming properties. JECFA has evaluated chamomile and established specifications for its use. Some studies suggest chamomile may have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, but more research is needed to confirm these benefits in humans at typical dietary intakes.
