May I ask who told you this and if they quoted a source for their information? I did a Google search for "chamomile toxic" and came up with page after page about its NON-toxic uses. Here is the only helpful information I found:

Quote:

Chamomile in tea may cause toxic reactions in individuals sensitive to ragweed or allergens (11.1-96). The chamomiles can also cause contact dermititis (11.1-96).

Roman and German chamomile are generally recognized as safe for human consumption as natural seasonings/flavorings and as plant extracts/essential oils from the flowers (21 CFR sections 182.10, 182.20 [1982]).

This is from CHAMOMILE
