Does chamomile contain caffeine?
Excuse me, but Rooibos or Red tea does have a little bit of caffeine in it. If you look on the Celestial Seasonings box there is a comparison of the caffeine in it with black and green teas. Chamomile does not contain caffeine and is used to relax and help people sleep. Passion flower and hops are also helpful in relaxation and sleep. Chamomile is reactive to some people because it is in the ragweed family and some people that are highly reactive to ragweed can have issues with consuming Chamomile and get caffeine effects from it, like racing heartbeat and other allergic symptoms. Also, you can experiment with the mint family as tea preparations too, peppermint, spearamint, lavender and fennel. Unless mint is contraindicated with your medicine, they’re yummy and aid in digestion too.
