In the Grass & Co. CALM range of premium products, CBD Oil is combined with chamomile, ashwagandha, and vitamins B6 and B12, to help calm and relax your body and mind throughout the day. In this article, we will look at the benefits of chamomile and see if using chamomile can help those suffering from anxiety and if it helps you prepare for a good night’s sleep. What is Chamomile? Chamomile is a flowering plant in the daisy family and has been consumed for centuries as a natural remedy for various health conditions. Although native to Europe and Western Asia, the chamomile plant is now found around the world. The name chamomile is derived from the Greek word for the herb and means “earth apple” which is fitting since chamomile has a sweet scent reminiscent of apples. The dried flowers of the chamomile plant contain many terpenoids and flavonoids contributing to its medicinal properties. There are two different types of chamomile plants: the German chamomile and the Roman chamomile. The German chamomile is considered the more potent variety and is the one most widely used for medicinal purposes. The Benefits of Chamomile Chamomile is considered a safe plant and has been used as a herbal remedy for centuries for a wide variety of conditions. Some of the conditions chamomile has traditionally been used for include rheumatic pain, hay fever, inflammation, fever, digestive problems, muscle spasms, gout, ulcers, skin irritations, insomnia, anxiety, headaches, kidney, liver, and bladder problems. Currently, chamomile is mostly used to help with digestive upsets, insomnia, and anxiety. It is also used topically to help ease skin conditions and accelerate wound healing. More research is needed though to prove these purported benefits. Does Chamomile Help with Anxiety? Although more research is required, limited data shows that the use of chamomile is generally considered safe and can be effective in helping to reduce some of the symptoms of anxiety. In a study conducted in 2016, it was found that the use of chamomile was safe and significantly reduced moderate to moderate-to-severe Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD) symptoms. Can Chamomile Help You Sleep? Chamomile is widely regarded as a mild tranquilliser and sleep-inducer. Although research indicates that chamomile may make you feel sleepy and help you to fall asleep, there isn’t yet any conclusive evidence that it improves your quality of sleep. The chamomile flower extract contains a chemical compound called Apigenin. It’s believed that the sedative effects of chamomile may be linked to the Apigenin binding to receptors in the brain which are known to decrease anxiety and initiate sleep.
