The plant
Plant part: Flowery
Origin: France
Originally from Eastern Europe and the Middle East, matrix chamomile (also called German chamomile) is now widespread in almost all of Europe and willingly colonizes abandoned land as well as the non-treated fields. Wild or cultivated species, chamomile is harvested in summer, in full flower. It owes its name to Greek Chamos (because it grows near the ground) and Melos (because its flowers have a perfume close to that of the apple). The matricaria genre name comes from the Matrix Latin, -icis "1. Reproductive, female, 2. Matrix" and the suffix -arius, -aria, by allusion to the virtues of the plant. Finally, it's the plant of blond hair!
What are the benefits of German Chamomile?
German chamomile is a plant with many health benefits. It is particularly effective in relieving respiratory allergies, thanks to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties which help reduce inflammation of the respiratory tract. Additionally, this herb is also useful for treating eczema and psoriasis, two skin conditions that cause itching and irritation. When applied externally, German chamomile tea can help soothe the symptoms of both conditions, reducing redness and itching. It is therefore recommended to include this plant in your skincare routine to benefit from its benefits on the health of the skin and respiratory tract.
