One of these ingredients is the Chamomile flower.  Chamomile is native to Europe and Asia and has been used for centuries both internally and externally to treat a variety of conditions.   Some of the benefits of chamomile are that it can be used as a sleep aid if you have trouble with insomnia.  It can help boost the immune system, relieve muscle spasms, soothe the nerves and stomach, reduce menstrual cramps in women, improve liver function and act as an anti-inflammatory agent.

Chamomile also can help regulate blood sugar so it can help prevent the onset of diabetes, help with weight control and provide your body with more energy.  In the Middle Ages, people used chamomile to treat various medical conditions such as asthma, nausea, colic, fever and skin disease.

Modern research has revealed that chamomile has anti-bacterial, anti-allergenic and anti-inflammatory properties.  Chamomile salve has been used to quell painful hemorrhoids and topical wounds.  Taken internally, Chamomile can help with morning sickness during pregnancy, facilitate bowel movements, treat diverticulitis and other gastrointestinal diseases and help with lumbago and rashes.  Used as a vapor it can alleviate allergies and act as an antihistamine.
