Chamomile tea is one of history’s oldest herbal remedies for stress and stomachaches. Funnily enough, CBD is also well-known for helping customers with these complaints. Since Tribe CBD oil and chamomile tea share so many supposed benefits, we thought it’d be fitting to add the two together!

The next time you’re looking for a non-alcoholic after-dinner treat, be sure to brew a cup of this CBD chamomile tea recipe. The combination of these delicious ingredients is sure to help you de-stress before heading to bed. 

CBD Chamomile Tea Recipe

Although most chamomile tea brands are associated with Germany, you could find this daisy sprouting up all over the world. Chamomiles are even abundant in frigid countries throughout Eastern Europe. In fact, Russia chose chamomile to be its national flower. 

According to most etymologists, the word “chamomile” traces its “roots” back to Ancient Greece. Could you guess what this term means? If you guessed “apple of the earth,” then you’re one smart cookie (or you’re just a tech-savvy cheater!).

Like hemp extract, there’s not a ton of scientific studies on chamomile’s medicinal properties. Most of the “evidence” on chamomile’s benefits is purely anecdotal. However, there are a few long-term, placebo-controlled studies in the works for chamomile extract. So, within a few years, we might have more rigorous data to confirm what herbalists have believed for centuries. 

Ingredients

• One chamomile tea sachet 
• One spoonful of raw honey
• One dropperful Tribe CBD oil

Directions

• Boil a pot of water on the stovetop
• Pour about eight oz. of hot water into a tea mug with the chamomile sachet
• Stir in a spoonful of raw honey and Tribe CBD oil
• Let steep for at least five minutes before enjoying

Besides anxiety relief, many people assume chamomile has a beneficial effect on the gut. If you’ve ever had an upset tummy, chances are your momma may have advised you to brew a warm glass of chamomile tea. 

Interestingly, CBD oil may also have a beneficial impact on digestive health. In fact, a few studies recently suggested CBD has natural anti-nausea properties. 

However, it’s important to note that CBD isn’t responsible for the “munchies” some people report when taking marijuana. Lab tests confirm the cannabinoid THC is responsible for this appetite-increasing side effect. All of the hemp products in Tribe CBD only have ≤ 0.3 percent THC. 

Instead of stimulating insatiable hunger, hemp extract seems to prep your palate for a big meal. There are even a few people who use Tribe CBD oil to manage IBS symptoms. Supposedly, CBD’s natural anti-anxiety properties could help soothe a stressed-out stomach.

Of course, the scientific research into CBD and chamomile for digestion is still in its early phases. Hopefully, as more people seriously examine these compounds, we’ll better understand how to use them for a wide range of conditions.

CBD Lettuce Tea Recipe 

Sorry to disappoint all of you TikTok fans, but there’s little evidence that lettuce tea will help you fall asleep. The only “science” behind this trend comes from a South Korean study that examined lettuce’s effects on rats. While this research showed promising results, scientists were using incredibly high concentrations of lettuce extract. Also, there’s still no evidence these sedating effects work on humans. 

On the positive side, researchers believe the lettuce compounds lactucin and lactucopicrin have potential sedative properties. While these chemicals are in romaine lettuce, there won’t be enough to knock you out in just a few leaves. We’ll have to wait for more research into lettuce seed extract to determine how to use this plant for sleep health. 

With all this in mind, there are no adverse risks associated with trying a glass of romaine lettuce tea. As long as you wash your romaine leaves—and have a good gag reflex!—feel free to give this trendy drink a try. 

Ingredients 

• Two or three romaine lettuce leaves, washed 
• 8 oz boiling water 
• 1 dropperful Tribe CBD oil
• A few drops of food-safe mint essential oil
• Mint sprig

Directions

• Pour boiling water into a tea mug with pre-washed lettuce leaves
• Let steep for about 5 minutes
• Mix in mint essential oil and Tribe CBD oil
• Add mint sprig, enjoy

The jury’s still out on whether romaine lettuce has significant sedative properties. However, there are science-backed strategies that could help you overcome insomnia. 

For starters, you’ve got to shut off all your screens a few hours before bed. Although we’re still learning about the effects of blue light, most research suggests too much exposure to these screens can disrupt our circadian rhythm. So, instead of staring at your smartphone late in the day, pull out a book or take a warm bath. 

You may also want to consider snacking on kiwis or cherries right before bed. Both of these fruits are jam-packed with nutrients that seem to help promote a night of restful sleep. In fact, one study found people who ate about two kiwis an hour before bed had better sleep quality than those who didn’t. There’s also evidence that suggests cherries have all-natural traces of the sleep hormone melatonin.
