8 causes of hemorrhagic cystitis in women: symptoms and treatment

The medicinal properties of chamomile are recognized not only by adherents of alternative traditional medicine, but also by many doctors.

Chamomile has the following effects on the body of a sick person:

• calms (when taken orally, chamomile decoction helps normalize night sleep, relieves nervous tension, eliminates causeless anxiety, etc.);

• relieves pain (the pharmaceutical plant relaxes muscles, eliminates spasms and neutralizes pain);
• disinfects (chamomile is a natural antiseptic that can eliminate certain types of pathogenic microorganisms and disinfect the urinary tract);
