By stimulating the receptors of the nervous system, it helps reduce nervous tension, promoting a state of relaxation and general well-being. A natural remedy for people suffering from stress oranxiety, it also facilitates falling asleep and improves sleep quality.
Externally, Roman chamomile is widely used for its anti-inflammatory properties. Applied as an eye bath, it soothes eyelid inflammation and reduces redness and irritation. Those prone to conjunctivitis or seasonal allergies will find this plant a gentle, effective solution to soothe their symptoms.
Finally, Roman chamomile is rich in antioxidants, such as polyphenols and flavonoids, which help protect the body's cells against damage caused by free radicals. These components also help strengthen the immune system, reducing the risk of chronic infection and inflammation.
