Thymus vulgaris isn’t wild at all. Its benefits to human health are so numerous that there is nowadays a huge rush for growing it on a large scale farming, especially after it has been proven to contain “thymol’ and “carvacrol” - two anti-oxidant and anti-bacterial agents. Because thymol is a strong antiseptic, it is used to medicate gauze and wool for surgical dressings. Thyme is used to garnish some foods and add its special flavor. Thyme tea has proven beyond doubt that it has good effects against coughs and the respiratory system. Regular use of thyme improves the health and longevity of the human cells and therefore prolongs the life of the body. The list of thyme benefits grow from day to day, and future generations will award the Nobel Prize to “The Natural Antibiotic” contained in thyme .
