Description
German chamomile, also called matricaria or blue chamomile because of the essential oil's colour, grows in many regions of Europe and Western Asia.It is often found in fields and along paths.
It has a long tradition of use as a medicinal plant.
Its botanical name comes from the Latin “matrix”, referring to the womb. It has been widely recommended for treating “women's ailments”, although women are not the only ones to benefit from its use. It is one of the natural remedies most often recommended for relieving babies' colic, and in Germany in particular it is used to soothe irritated and inflamed skin. It is also highly valued for its digestive properties.
Its essential oil is easily recognised by its colour and scent. The blue-green colour is due to the presence of chamazulene.
Its aroma is difficult to describe, but it is fair to say that it is not pleasant.
Precautions
May be used during pregnancy and on children under professional supervision.
Do not apply directly to the skin. Dilute in a carrier oil or follow the recommended usage rate for creams and other cosmetics. This rate should be 1% or 2% at most.

Me llamaron para indicarme que me cambiaban de la manzanilla azul a la Ecológica, dándome más información de la que había pedido y mandándome la cromatografía del lote, comparada con la anterior... jamás he visto algo igual en ningún proveedor, y llevo más de 15 años con aceites esenciales. El producto es algo indescriptible para el precio que tiene. El aroma, la textura, el comportamiento en la piel... la experiencia ha sido como si yo mismo hubiera destilado y hubiera tenido a mano el laboratorio para hacer el testeo. Creo que deberíais cambiar el nombre de la web... porque a muchos que como yo trabajan con aromaterapia, pueden creer que son aceites de baja calidad... y con total rotundidad afirmo que es todo lo contrario. Gracias
Pros (original): Producto increíble... olor, aroma, textura, atención al cliente...
