Over 600,000 Americans die from one each year.
The flavones in the beverage can lower your blood pressure and cholesterol levels.

drink helps to balance the temperature in your body, and soothe the digestive tract.
Having trouble breathing?
A lot of this is seasonal.
You don't even need to drink chamomile to get some feel-good benefits.
You can simply make some steam to improve your respiratory health.

(Pause) We’re not done yet.
Use chamomile to heal your wounds.
(Pause) Before we continue, no, you can’t just drink
chamomile and have your wounds magically disappear.
It’s not that simple.
But, chamomile can help speed up wound healing.
There’s research to back this up.
The extract is known to kill viruses and bacteria, reduce inflammation, and prevent and treat
ulcer formation.
The use of chamomile-based products can also help reduce scarring.
It’s also effective in treating minor skin irritations such as sunburn, rashes, blisters,
and even eye inflammation.

This is when it’s applied properly.
(Pause) With all that aside, is it safe to drink chamomile
tea?
(Pause) You must be scratching your head at this question.
I mean, we just went through all of its benefits.
Of course it’s good for you, right?
… Right?
For the most part, chamomile tea has no side effects, and is pretty safe to drink.
That being said, there have been a few cases where chamomile has caused allergies.
This can be a big problem for people who are allergic to daisy plants.
Also, products that contain hints of chamomile can irritate your eyes if they come in direct
contact with them.
It can even cause conjunctivitis, which is just another word for pink eye.
The good news is that there have been no cases of life-threatening side effects or poisoning
due to chamomile tea.
Young people, pregnant women, and people with liver illnesses should first talk to their
doctors about the safety of drinking chamomile tea.
For thousands of years, chamomile tea has been used as medicine.
While the outcomes have been positive, it’s still a supplement, and CAN’T replace actual
medicine.
If you want to see the positive effects, you’ll do yourself a favor by adding a cup or two
of chamomile to your daily routine.
(Pause) The things you eat and drink are very important
to your health.
Your diet makes all the difference in whether or not you get sick.
