Thyme

Thyme is a herb with tiny leaves that develop in groups along thin stalks. This herb is used to season a variety of foods, either on its own or in a bouquet garni with other popular herbs like marjoram, sage, and rosemary. Anyone wishing to cook with fresh herbs can ingest Thyme because it is suitable for every diet and hardly ever considered an allergy.

Health Benefits

• Thyme is used for bronchitis and whooping cough and colic. It can also be used to treat sore throats and arthritis, upset stomach, stomach pain (gastritis), diarrhoea, bedwetting, dyspraxia, and various other medical issues. It also acts as an appetite stimulant.
• A few people also use it on the skin to serve as a calming agent. It is also used to treat hoarseness (laryngitis) or swollen and inflamed tonsils (tonsillitis). Its oil can be used as a bactericide when it comes to mouthwashes, liniments and other mouthwashes. It can also be applied on the scalp to treat hair loss and also to the ears to combat fungal and bacterial infections.
• For hoarseness (laryngitis), swollen tonsils (tonsillitis), sore mouth, and poor breath, some people apply thyme straight to the skin. Thyme oil is used in mouthwashes and liniments to fight germs. Additionally, it is used on the ears to treat bacterial and fungal infections as well as baldness on the scalp.
