for Cough
Brew 1-2 teaspoons of dried thyme in boiling water for 10 minutes, then strain and drink it like a tea. Have 2-3 cups a day - it helps loosen mucus and ease coughing spasms. Fresh thyme works too, using a small handful per cup.
How it works
Thymol and carvacrol relax bronchial smooth muscle and promote mucus clearance.
What to watch for
Use culinary thyme or standardised preparations. Safe and well-tolerated.
