Words by Anny Schneider

Among the 300 varieties, this type of thyme is the most popular and recognized for its antifungal, bactericidal, digestive and general tonic properties .

Its essential oil, here originating in Spain and certified organic, is used in bactericidal ointments , mouthwashes but also anti-inflammatory lotions .

It is advisable to use it diluted to a maximum of 5% in a neutral vegetable oil.

⇒  Because of its high level of terpenes and phenols, it is essential to avoid the essential oil of thyme to thymol in young children, pregnant women and in case of hypertension.

Origin of this essential oil

This organic essential oil of thymol thyme from India is distilled from the flowering tops of the plant.
