Thyme supports Immune and Respiratory functioning in our body as well as digestive and nervous systems. Thyme is closely related to Oregano, though there are many nutritive differences between these two herbs. For e.g. Thyme has more vitamin A and vitamin C than oregano. There are other differences as well, which we will cover in another post.

Five key health benefits of using Thyme are:

Thyme has been used since ancient times to cure sore throat and other coughs and colds including bronchitis.
Thyme can help with lowering blood pressure and cholesterol levels.

Thyme is also a known natural diuretic and an appetite stimulant.
