Chamomile: A Treasure of Phytomedicine



With the help of phytomedicine, many plants are currently used for their beneficial effects on health.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 80% of the global population relies on medicinal plants for primary health care, states an article from the Argentine Medical Association (AMA).

Chamomile, scientifically known as Matricaria chamomilla L., is one of these plants that has been valued since ancient times for its calming and therapeutic properties.

Soothing Properties and Effects on Health



Chamomile is famous for its ability to address issues of anxiety, stress, and difficulty sleeping.

This is due to the presence of apigenin, a natural flavonoid that acts as an antioxidant and provides calming effects similar to those of benzodiazepines, although it should not be considered a substitute for medical treatments.

Additionally, studies have suggested that chamomile may reduce inflammation and improve joint health, being beneficial for people with arthritis or osteoarthritis.

Among the phenolic compounds present in chamomile are quercetin and luteolin, which help reduce inflammation and may contribute to cardiovascular health.

This translates into greater relaxation of blood vessels, thus improving blood flow and reducing blood pressure.

How to Consume Chamomile Infusion



The most common way to consume chamomile is through its infusion. To prepare it, you simply need to soak the dried chamomile flowers in hot water for a few minutes.

You can also find chamomile in strands or in tea bags, which makes its preparation easier.

Experts recommend consuming between 1 to 3 cups of chamomile tea a day, but it is important to follow dosage recommendations and consult with a healthcare professional, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have allergies.

Precautions and Final Considerations



Aunque el té de manzanilla es generalmente seguro para la mayoría de las personas, algunas pueden experimentar efectos secundarios como náuseas, mareos o reacciones alérgicas.

Por ello, es fundamental leer las etiquetas de los productos y estar atentos a las recomendaciones de expertos. La Administración de Alimentos y Medicamentos (FDA) de los EEUU señala que el té de manzanilla es seguro para su uso en alimentos, pero siempre es recomendable consultar con un médico antes de iniciar cualquier tratamiento con hierbas.

En conclusión, la manzanilla no solo es una deliciosa infusión, sino que también ofrece una variedad de beneficios para la salud, especialmente en la reducción del estrés y la mejora de la calidad del sueño. Incorporar esta planta en tu rutina diaria puede ser un paso positivo hacia un mayor bienestar.
