/u/MrWeed9819 To avoid microplastics, you want to cut open the tea bags and empty out the chamomile. After that combine 8oz ( 1 cup ) of boiling water with each 5g of chamomile, preferably in a container with a lid. Soak for at least 30 min, then strain. For maximum strength let it sit overnight, strain, and then refrigerate. When you try a higher dosage, do it Friday after dinner so you have the weekend to recover if you over do it.
