Beneficial properties… thyme!!!! It’s good for your hair too.

Thyme is a traditional herb, which grows everywhere in Greece and apart from being beautiful and fragrant, in summer when it blooms with pink and purple flowers, it has many magical beneficial properties… which have been discovered since ancient times.
Some of them are that it is full of antioxidants, manages to calm the nervous system, has vitamins A, C, fiber, iron, manganese, copper and trace elements, elements that help our strong immune system. Thyme has antiparasitic, antiseptic, antifungal and antirheumatic properties. It helps blood circulation and this, as we know, is very important for the hair. Products containing thyme increase microcirculation and strengthen the scalp.

Specifically, thyme helps in the treatment of hair loss, reduces cough, helps in the treatment of gynecological fungal infections, soothes inflammation of the respiratory tract. It relieves the symptoms of flu, asthma and can often act as an antipyretic. If you gargle and mouthwash with thyme, you will also help with gingivitis and bad breath. Among other things, it fights indigestion, is used as a soothing agent in skin problems (e.g.: acne, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, bites) and is a natural tonic of the immune and nervous system. It helps in the clarity of the mind and also helps to reduce anxiety, depression and insomnia.

In ancient times

Who would have guessed that the word thyme comes from the verb “to sacrifice”. And do you know why? In ancient times, fresh thyme branches were placed on the altars as an offering to the gods. According to historical facts, from the time of Homer, thyme was a symbol of strength and bravery. They were in the habit of either drinking thyme tea or bathing with it. Alexander the Great, during his great campaign, washed his body with a decoction of thyme to remove lice from his body. Roman soldiers also bathed in water scented with thyme to gain vigour and energy, burning thyme in their country houses to ward off scorpions. In ancient times, thyme was an herb that was added to the bath water to relieve aches and pains. Thymol, the active ingredient in thyme, is an antiseptic. Its aroma is tonic while the oil has a warming and tonic effect.

Caution
Avoid thyme if you are pregnant, it can cause uterine contractions. Thyme can also act as a blood thinner, so there is a risk of bleeding. And finally, it can deregulate the thyroid.
