Known as the Queen of Healing herbs, chamomile flowers have been long used by the Ancient Egyptians, to honor the gods, embalm the dead, and cure the ill. For centuries, people have been drinking chamomile tea before bed for a good night’s rest.
The chamomile flower contains flavonoid and apigenin, which binds itself to benzodiazepine receptors in the brain. This helps to decrease anxiety and promote sleep and reduce stress. A natural way to get rid of sleeping pills.
Here are 5 reasons why Pure Chamomile is good for your overall health:
1. BETTER SLEEP, BETTER IMMUNITY
When your body gets good sleep, your immune cells and proteins are well-rested to fight off whatever comes their way — like colds or the flu. Teabox Pure Chamomile tea, crafted with real flowers is perfect for your bedtime ritual, to improve your health.
2. COMPLETELY CAFFEINE FREE

The diuretic effect of caffeine can reduce the absorption of some vitamins and minerals from food, like calcium and iron— two minerals that are also common deficiencies. It will also help to lessen anxiety, leading to better immune function.
3. NATURALLY ALLEVIATES ANXIETY
Chamomile is traditionally used for its therapeutic properties. With its high level of antioxidants, chamomile tea helps alleviate symptoms of chronic anxiety disorders, brings some tranquility to your busy schedule, and helps you sleep better.
4. AN EFFECTIVE PREVENTIVE MEASURE
Many studies hail Chamomile tea as a natural remedy to tackle most illnesses. Chamomile contains anti-inflammatory properties that fight harmful bacteria and reduce swelling and pain. Inhaling steam from Chamomile tea can ease nasal congestion and soothe sore throats.
