Matricaria recutita
Chamomile, scientifically known as Matricaria Chamomilla, is a herb used for centuries for its medicinal and health benefits. The name 'chamomile' is derived from the Greek words 'khamai', meaning on the ground, and 'melon', meaning apple, indicative of its apple-like scent. This plant's history is rich with uses ranging from traditional teas to remedies for various ailments, showcasing its significance across cultures.
Chamomile is renowned for its delicate flowers, which possess powerful soothing and healing properties. It grows extensively across Europe and Asia, with a longstanding reputation in natural medicine for promoting relaxation, aiding sleep, and supporting digestive health.
Kissed Earth incorporates chamomile in its product line as a key ingredient due to its numerous health benefits and gentle, supportive nature.

Additionally, chamomile enhances the Anxiety & Stress supplement, providing a natural way to manage stress and promote inner peace. The Eternal PM Multivitamin also benefits from chamomile’s soothing properties, helping to optimise sleep quality and provide a refreshing start to the day. By including chamomile in these formulations, Kissed Earth ensures their products deliver both delicious flavours and health-enhancing effects.
