Thyme Herb
GNLD's Herbs For Wellness !!!
Thyme has been used in connection with
the following conditions:
- Bronchitis
- Cough
Thyme is also used as a treatment for inflamed sinuses, nose, throat, and larynx, as a remedy for whooping cough, and as an antibacterial and deodorant skin rub. In folk medicine it has been used as a digestive aid, a urinary disinfectant, a diuretic (to flush excess fluid from the body), a remedy for intestinal worms, and an anti-gas medication. Its effectiveness for such problems has not, however, been clinically verified.
What It Is - Why It Works
Recognized today mostly for its culinary benefits, Thyme has played an important role in medicine from the Middle Ages onward. Thymol, its active ingredient, helps loosen phlegm, combats bronchial spasms, and discourages growth of bacteria. First noted by a German pharmacist in 1725, thymol eventually replaced carbolic acid as a safer, yet effective, antiseptic. Today it's found in such popular over-the-counter products as Listerine mouthwash and Vicks VapoRub.
