    My girlfriend always makes fun that in Germany chamomile tea is the go to painkiller and only if that doesn’t help the pills come out. It was one of her strongest culture-shocks she didn’t anticipate before coming to Europe

      They’ll only have the “medicinal” tea if even more Lüften didn’t do the trick

        French here and I’m team Germany on that one. The right herbal tea will ease most of the pain. Camomille is perfect for inflammation, verbena for digestation and so one.

          The French love their pills though, especially anti-depressants, antibiotics, etc.

            Yes, antobiotics are life but Camomille does have some antibiotic effects.
