Thyme is an herb that’s commonly used to flavor food. It’s also been used since ancient times for different health and medicinal benefits and as a preservative. Today, it’s used in a wide variety of products ranging from mouthwashes to teas and even nasal sprays – as well as in the kitchen.
With roots in the mint family, thyme has tiny, sage-green leaves and thin stalks. It’s a robust, shrubby herb with an intense aroma and flavor. It can be used fresh, dried, or made into an essential oil. Although there are more than 60 types of thyme, Thymus vulgaris, or garden thyme, is the most common culinary species.
A small study in 2013 tested a nasal spray containing a thyme-based extract called thymol in 18 healthy people with normal lung function. They used the nasal spray before and after inhaling a little bit of capsaicin, which would naturally make them cough. They coughed less when they used the thymol spray, compared to a saltwater or placebo spray. Bigger studies are needed to check those results.Compounds in thyme – in particular, thymol and carvacrol – may also help ease chest congestion, and researchers have suggested studying whether thyme, in amounts you’d get from food or tea, can do that.
Recommended Dosage: 20 to 40 drops after meals. As a gargle for aggravated throat conditions, 1 Tbs. per cup of water. In times of crisis, every 2 to 4 hours, as needed, 40 drops to 1 tsp.
Directions on label: For adults, mix 2 ml of extract in 2 oz (60 ml) of water one time daily preferably with a meal.
