Thyme Power

Only the idea of thyme's perfume makes me feel good. It instantly makes me travel to summers spent in Provence, France, where my grandparents lived. We cut thyme from their garden and my grandmother cooked with it. Thyme is a wonderful herb and has many benefits beyond its smell:

• Thyme has been used in natural medicine for a long time. A thyme infusion can help treating a cold by clearing sinuses and calming cough. I love an infused handful of fresh thyme with lemon and a spoon of honey.

• Thyme essential oil is known for its ability to fight off bacteria and fungus.

• Thyme has small amounts of nutrients such as potassium, vitamin A, vitamin C, and magnesium. It is delicious and will enhance many of your dishes, a spoon of thyme and you have a next level meal!
