Chamomile
German (Matricaria recutic) (blue)
The
aroma of the German (blue) variety is deeper, headier and more floral than the
light colored Roman chamomile. The blue color (azulene content) of German
chamomile gives this oil extraordinary anti-inflammatory and nervine properties;
specific to people who have periods of indifference to family and friends
followed by outbursts directed at those closest to them; German chamomile is a
necessary ingredient in blends for ADHD in children and anxiety attacks in
adolescents and adults; the name ‘Matricaria’ means “caring for the
womb” and emphasizes the centuries-old use of this herb for female complaints;
Excellent for digestive problems, nausea and headaches that are caused by gall
bladder deficiency.
