Cape Chamomile Oil

Occasional culinary-strength tea is widely used traditionally, but German chamomile has mild emmenagogue (uterine-stimulant) activity — concentrated extracts, capsules, or frequent strong tea are generally advised against, especially in the first trimester or with a history of miscarriage.

Commonly used traditionally in normal tea amounts to support let-down and calm the nursing parent; considered compatible with breastfeeding.

Widely used in mild diluted tea form for infant colic and sleep in traditional practice. Rare allergic reactions occur in children with a known ragweed/daisy (Asteraceae) family allergy.
