by Health and Herbs
Description From Herbal Descriptions by Truman Berst: #3187 THYME (Thymus vulgaris) Thyme herb is a common household spice that has many medicinal values. It helps to clear respiratory difficulties, including bronchial problems, whooping cough, laryngitis, catarrh, and sore throat. It also treats the digestive system for stomach cramps, diarrhea, heartburn, chronic gastritis, flatulence, colic, and diminished appetite. Taken at the beginning of cold or flu, it will induce perspiration. It may be used as an antiseptic mouthwash and as a skin wash to destroy fungal infections (such as Athleteâs Foot and skin parasites). As a local irritant, it increases the blood flow to the surface; it can be used in baths for neurasthenia, rheumatism, paralysis, bruises, swellings, and sprains. In a salve it is helpful for shingles. CAUTION: Excessive use can lead to poisoning symptoms and overstimulation of the thyroid gland. Tierra suggests no more than 1 ounce per day.
