This is a really beautiful product. I bought it to help relieve my cat's fall Allergies. He gets super itchy in September thru November. Chamomile flowers are safe for cats. The leaves & stems are not. I just used a coffee filter to brew it then put it in a little spray bottle & stored in the fridge (each batch lasts 5 days this way). I spritzed it into my hands & rubbed him down twice a day. Helped him tremendously. No more bald patches from over-licking. I can't imagine why it wouldn't work for humans also. Unfortunately, I hate the taste of chamomile. I'll never use up this entire, gigantic bag. I put 1/2 in ziplocks & popped it in the back of the freezer so we'll see how that works out next fall
