Known as a medicinal and culinary plant to all the early civilizations in the Mediterranean, our Essential Oil of the Month is highly bactericidal and an excellent remedy for treating all forms of infections: colds, sore throats, respiratory infections and infections of the urinary tract. It is also a digestive stimulant and intestinal antiseptic, valuable for gastric infections. It stimulates the production of white corpuscles, so strengthening the body’s resistance to invading organisms. Our Essential Oil of the Month is Benchmark Thyme.
There are several variants of Thyme which are all extracted from Thymus vulgaris (also known as Common Thyme) but with different chemical compositions. Common Thyme can be quite harsh on the skin, so it’s recommended to use other types of Thyme essential oils that are gentle and non-irritant.
Our Essential Oil of the Month Benchmark Thyme has a unique combination of four ethically grown Thyme cultivars (Thymus zygis + other chemotypes) offering an effective composition of anti-bacterial aroma-chemicals while being skin-friendly. In fact, a number of researches have shown that Benchmark Thyme exhibited the strongest bactericidal effect in comparison with other Thyme chemotypes and Tea Tree oils.
