disinfectant, useful for all respiratory, nose, mouth, throat and
chest infections, infections of the bladder or urinary tract. It

body's immunity. Thyme stimulates circulation and raises low blood
pressure. It is good for people who are fatigued, depressed or
lethargic. It stimulates the appetite, making it useful in
convalescence. Thyme has the rare property of counteracting adrenaline
spasms. This helps balance the adrenal cortex system, where there is
an over production of adrenaline hormones, which can cause the kidneys
and the digestive system to malfunction. It also calms spasms caused
by too much acetylcholine.
