Chamomille
The
soothing properties of the Chamomille tea and
seeds have been used medicinally for
centuries.
Nowadays,
Chamomille is still used as a mild sedative for
individuals with nervousness or minor
anxiety.
Chamomille
has many other health benefits, including mild insomnia
and topically as an effective wound-healing
agent.
Chamomille
tea benefits exceed its side effects.

But
one of the biggest concern about chamomille is on
pregnancy. Is chamomile tea safe during pregnancy? I
noticed that there are conflicting messages on the
subject.
As
a physician, I have already met pregnancy women
complaining about spontaneous abortion after taking
chamomile. I couldn't check if they were wrong or not. No
study reported by the medical literature conclude to
adverse effects. But I personally believe that in case of
doubt, it's better to avoid it.
