Etymology

The name 'chamomile' originates from the Greek word 'chamaimฤ“lon', which translates to 'earth apple', referring to the plantโ€™s low growth habit and the apple-like fragrance of its flowers. The term came into use in the Middle Ages when the plant was widely recognized for its medicinal properties, particularly its use in herbal remedies for sleep and digestion. The chamomile plant has been a staple in traditional medicine for centuries and is celebrated in various cultures for its soothing and calming effects. Over time, the name evolved in different languages, leading to variations such as 'camomilla' in Italian and 'chamomille' in French. Its usage has transcended cultural boundaries, establishing chamomile as a popular ingredient not only in herbal concoctions but also in skincare products due to its anti-inflammatory properties.
