About Thyme
Thyme, an evergreen perennial shrub, earns applause for its diverse applications in the realms of cuisine, medicine, and ornamentation. Belonging to the same family as oregano, thyme stands out for its vibrant green or variegated leaves.
Beyond its culinary charm in enhancing sauces and meat dishes, thyme boasts a reputation for addressing a spectrum of health concerns. Its therapeutic properties extend to alleviating coughs, cold and flu symptoms, minor irritations, microbial infections, muscular spasms, gastritis, flatulence, diarrhea, bedwetting, and various skin disorders. Acting as a natural expectorant, thyme aids in clearing stubborn mucus, providing relief for wet coughs, and easing nasal and chest congestion.
