Who Should Avoid Chamomile Tea?

Some people should avoid ingesting chamomile without talking to their doctor first. These people include those with a history of pollen allergies, previously reacted to chamomile products, and infants and very young children. 

Infants should avoid chamomile because it can be contaminated with botulism spores. This is basically harmless for adults, but infants have a weaker immune system. This is the same reason infants should avoid honey.

Pregnant women should avoid chamomile because it is a smooth muscle relaxant. This effect can cause miscarriages, especially before 12 weeks.

Some forms of chamomile tea can be more potent or less potent, depending on the tea recipe. If you want to be sure of your tea’s content, you should get the base components and mix it yourself.

Remember to start with lower doses and work yourself up to see how you react to the tea.
