Organic Thyme can be considered "nature's antiviral". Some studies show thyme, due to its terpenes (see certificate of analysis), can be effective in providing relief from viruses such as the flu, enteroviruses, norovirus, and the whole gamut of herpetic viruses responsible for autoimmune disorders and Lyme disease. Thyme's unique ability to cross the blood-brain barrier makes it a secret weapon against viruses that have started to attack the brain or spinal cord resulting in neurological conditions.
