Earthborn Elements Chamomile Extract 200 Capsules, Pure & Undiluted, No Additives

When it comes to herbal "medicine", I'm a skeptic, a giant stomping skeptic. How do I know those aren't just lawn clippings from someone's yard work? I have been on Cymbalta for over a year, the dosage has been adjusted twice to make life a little more pleasant, but I still feel like a lump of dough. Those that have been on this stuff might know what I mean: soft, smooshy, gaining weight, nice to be around but not useful for anything and, indeed, dough has zero motivation to do anything on its own and doesn't feel happy, sad, angry or very much of anything else. EVER. AT ALL. EVEN WHEN POKED. EXCEPT TO SIT AND GAIN WEIGHT IT DOESN'T NEED. So I did some research on different classes of anti-depressants and anxiolytics and came across an article that suggested chamomile for moderate to severe anxiety, which I have GAD so everything around me threatens my existence constantly so that I almost can't work without flipping my wig about something. Hence the Cymbalta and, well, those that have taken it know already. A higher dosage means a bigger lump of dough and even less thrill at being alive. I want off the stuff, don't want a higher dosage and until such time as I can get to my doctor for a change of medication I needed something to add to manage the anxiety. I mean going into the office each morning and immediately wanting to put a particular co-worker through the paper shredder is not good. This happened, as usual, and after calming myself down just enough to get out of my desk to make a cup of rose chamomile tea I sat down again not expecting much but to sip out of my pretty Japanese tea set and go on being irritated as hell about everything. The only thing is 15 minutes after I finished the tea I suddenly realized that my thoughts were quite calm and I had actually started thinking about something else entirely unrelated. Still skeptical, I went on Amazon and thought, "hell, why not?" and ordered these chamomile pills. They weren't expensive and I wouldn't be out much if they didn't do anything. The day that I got them I popped one before bed hoping it would at least help me sleep. It didn't help with that at all. BUT, after I did fall asleep I woke in the middle of the night not looking forward to the next day. When I got out of bed the next morning I wanted to just sit like a lump of dough and do double diddly nothing. We went grocery shopping, I got fatigued as usual (autistic, hypersensitive to fluorescent lights and noise. It's Walmart, go figure.) When we returned I didn't want to put anything away (but did) then took a long nap. When I got up four hours later I still felt the same. I took another chamomile pill and decided I didn't want to cook what I originally planned so my husband and I went and got a frozen pizza, which means less work and more time dough-lumping in my chair. It wasn't until we were washing the dishes, which I didn't want to do (surprised?) and realized the "problem": the chamomile pills were working, working so cotton-picking well along with the Cymbalta that it was like I was on the higher dosage. I *was* calm, too calm. Amazingly overly calm. My thoughts were not racing. I didn't want to do anything but I knew what was causing it. I didn't take the chamomile the next morning or night. Today I woke up feeling like myself again, if you can feel like yourself on Cymbalta. Again, current and former users will know. All that said, l believe I will be able to take these while I am in the office because, God help me, that's where I need it most. So, maybe, my meds could possibly be adjusted again and I won't be an absolute basket case while trying to get used to something new. Everything I want to suggest to my doctor has no interaction with chamomile, so this transition might actually be a smoother one than last time. If I remember I'll post an update on it. Until then, if any of this sounds like you and you want to change medication/s, these chamomile pills might benefit you. It's worth a shot. Edit 2/9/24: I am nearly off of Cymbalta and actually doing pretty well. I am currently taking it Sunday-Wednesday-Saturday this week and then will be finished with that. The chamomile is working fantastic. I feel quite calm and I able to reason through situations without becoming mentally then physically frantic.

I have a hard time sleeping and these pills have really helped. They do not smell or have a bad taste to them. I take them about 1 hour before I want to go to sleep. I find they are effective in helping me sleep. They dont last all night but if I wake up I just take 2 more. All natural ingredients and they are a good price. Check them out.

Pretty potent, helps me get to sleep and sleep better consistently. Even when I have really bad nights, I have rarely taken all 4 pills in the serving size, I usually take 1-3 and it does the trick. Very helpful. Great price for the amount of pills. They don't smell or taste strong. Good, helpful pills. Thanks.

My husband & I have been taking Earthborn Elements Chamomile Extract Capsules for only 3 weeks and I just ordered our 2nd bottle because we don't want to run out! We are seniors and both of us have sleep problems due to anxiety, past trauma and other issues. Nothing has worked for me without causing side-effects the next morning. I tried CBN caps -compounds derived from medical-grade hemp- and it works well but is cost-prohibitive... outrageously expensive, impossible for us to purchase monthly. My research kept leading me to chamomile tea as an inexpensive, safe, bedtime alternative, and I like the mild effect, but the tea has a couple downsides. Then I decided to try chamomile capsules and this company's reviews and low price compelled me to try them. WOW!!! We both started with just one at night (with a small amount of water & no food) and could tell it was helping, so we decided to try two capsules about 30 minutes before hoping to fall asleep. Amazing! My husband even calls these chamomile capsules "miraculous" - they take effect quickly for him and he sleeps much better than ever before; if he wakes up around 3am or so, he takes another capsule or two and falls back to sleep. I find them to be the best sleep aid I've ever experienced. I also take two in the morning and they help to take the edge off of my anxiety, without making me tired. I'm not wasting time researching any other company besides Earthborn Elements for chamomile capsules, because these are WORKING and the price is so reasonable! The label doesn't say anything about taking these for sleep problems, but herbal supplement companies have to use caution when making health claims, and they recommend ample water & food. That hasn't been an issue for us when taking these just before bedtime. This type of chamomile seems to be in harmony with our bodies' needs - wonderful product! Highly recommend!

This can be used for so many things. Pressure behind your eyes. Back Pain. Loosen stool. help you sleep etc. this is german camomile the same as you would see in big name brands for cheaper .. you get more for less.

There’s nothing I didn’t like about these capsules. They are just straight up chamomile powder and that has been a trusted ingredient for years to help with sleep and calm. I feel like these help just like chamomile tea does, but probably a little bit more because it’s a higher dose. These work well in conjunction with melatonin at night. That’s when I take them the most but sometimes I take them during my PMS week to help with PMS anxiety. No it doesn’t take it all away, but I think it’s taking the edge off. I’d say for the price they are definitely worth a try as they seem pure.

Did nothing. Helped not at all. Had better results from just steeping some chamomile tea, letting it cool, and just get it down — not a fan of the flavor that is why I hoped these would work. They did not. During this process I tried Kava tea and that helped me even more. Every body is different. I’m glad I tried, but for me it didn’t help.
