Thyme Essential Oil (Thymus vulgaris)
Thyme Essential Oil has a spicy, warm, herbaceous aroma that is both powerful
and penetrating. Known since ancient times as a medicinal herb, thyme contains
large amounts of Thymol. As a dietary supplement, it is one of the strongest
antioxidants known. Thyme supports the immune, respiratory, digestive, nervous,
and other body systems.* Most essential oils work best when blended
with each other. The right combination will enhance the effects and power of the
essential oils. For some basic "oil recipes", check out our Recipe page or visit

Warts gone with Thyme Essential Oil "My 10 year old
nephew had several bothersome warts on both hands. His mother asked me what oils
I would suggest and I mentioned oregano, but she didn't have any. She did have
thyme so she decided to give it a try, putting a drop on only two of his warts
before bed. She did this for about 3 or 4 days and then they got busy and forgot
to do it for several days. When she remembered she went to put the thyme on his
warts again, but they were gone! They decided to try it with the rest of them,
but discovered they were gone too! All warts disappeared with only a few
applications of thyme on only two of the many warts!"
Thyme to eliminate Cancer Growth
"I have had a squamous cell growth taken off my chest about 9 years ago,
therefore I know what it looks like and feels like. I had another growth show up
on my chest a few months ago and I didn't want to go through the invasive biopsy
and the healing of the wound. This growth was raised and had a little knot in
it.
I actually read about Thyme for Cancer growths and I figured I would try it. I
applied Thyme over this growth for a solid month and it is now completely gone.
It was visible before but I can't even see where it was. The knot or core of the
growth is completely flat.
Truly amazing and I am so grateful this worked....especially since I don't have
medical insurance any longer."
