Mineral components play an important role as adjuvants in the therapeutical activity of chamomile. Considering their content in the different species, and interesting observation was that the wild populations are richer in distribution of mineral elements than the cultivated Degumil type, while ratios of K/Na and Ca/Mg in this cultivated type are many times higher than in wild chamomile populations. Chamomile tea extract (infusion) is widely used in digestion complains. Macro- and microelement content of the infusion is relatively low in which relatively high concentrations of potassium, calcium and magnesium were found.
