Does chamomile have tannins

Chamomile does contain tannins, though in relatively low amounts compared to other herbs. Tannins are polyphenolic compounds that can contribute to the astringent taste of some teas. In chamomile, these compounds may also play a role in its potential health benefits, such as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. However, the primary active compounds in chamomile are flavonoids, which are more abundant and contribute significantly to its therapeutic properties.
