Native to Europe and Western Asia, chamomile has been cultivated since antiquity and has spread throughout the world, especially in Latin America, where it is highly valued both in cooking and in traditional medicine.
Chamomile tea is rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds, making it ideal for calming the digestive system and helping with mild disorders such as indigestion, gas, and colic. Furthermore, it is used in beverage and dessert recipes for its characteristic aroma and flavor.
