Thyme in Medicine Thyme for Skin Diseases Herbal vinegar Thyme as a Foot Talc Natural Cough Syrup Making Herbal Syrups Arthritis Remedy Conclusion Author Bio Introduction Thyme also known as Thymus serpyllum is a popularly culinary and garden plant with a number of different varieties all having much in the same use in cooking and medicine. Since ancient times, this was considered to be one of the most popular herbs, because it was so commonly available. It was used to flavor food with an aromatic, warm and pungent flavor. The name Thyme is Greek in origin, because it originally was a native in the Mediterranean region from where it will spread to other parts of the world and other sunny regions. It normally means fumigation, which is an allusion to the healing properties of its smoke. In ancient times, Greeks used to take sprigs of thyme leaves and make them into bundles. Then they used to set fire to them. This was then used to perfume the air of their rooms, as well as public spots like temples and other public gathering places with the aromatic smell of this herb. The smell of the thyme was supposed to lift depression and calm anxiety. So I would not be surprised that the Roman forum was also extensively fumigated with time smoke before the Senators decided they had to say something on the lines of Alea Jacta est or Delenda est Carthago- or Carthago must go. This was also used extensively in herbal medicine. Ancient thyme vinegar recipes have come down the ages to us, to help cure small ailments as a natural disinfectant. This plant is native to North Asia , Europe and Australia. The dried leaves and the flowering tops of this plant along with another variety Thymus vulgaris are either called wild thyme or thyme . This normally prefers growing in the high altitude of about 1529 m above sea level. Thyme has been growing extensively in France, Germany, Spain and Italy for millenniums. In ancient times, it was normally used as an antifungal, as well as to cure bladder and intestinal infections. It is a common garden plant, which is going to live for many years, once it is planted and watered regularly. The leaves of this plant are curled, brownish green in color, usually not longer than six – seven mm and marketed in either a whole form or in ground form. If you lived in medieval times, and a maiden or a lad shyly offered you a sprig of thyme, it meant that she/he was offering his hand and heart to you. Accepting the sprig meant, okay, talk to my parents, because I agree and if you did not accept it, he/she could go and do the same offering of the sprig to the next one on his list. Nice thing, this language of flowers, is not it! In ancient times it meant courage, and in medieval times, it meant perseverance and remembrance. That is why ladies always embroidered a bee on a sprig of thyme and handed them to their knights going off adventuring. The idea was, though far thou bee, do not forget mee, though moments flee and thyme may pass, I will still bee and stay thy faithful lass. The more practical knight could take that as an unspoken threat of, go gathering honey elsewhere, and you shall feel my wrath, like a bee sting.

The Magic of Sage For Cooking and Health Table of Contents Introduction How to Grow Sage Planting Sage Taking Care of Sage Pests Attacking Sage Harvesting and Storing Your Sage Leaves Sage as a Healer Sage Tooth Care Remedy Sage for Healing Cuts Sage for Hair Treatment Josna’s Rosemary and Sage Hair-Conditioner Knowing More about Coconut Oil Massage oil How to make Infused Oils The Slow Sun Method How to Make Desi ghee (Clarified Butter) for Infusions Quick kitchen Method: Sage in Cuisine Traditional Onion and Sage Sauce Conclusion Author Bio Introduction Just imagine that you are living in ancient times in the Mediterranean area. Naturally, you do not have access to state-of-the-art medicine. So you are going to be using nostrums, lotions, potions, concoctions, decoctions and other remedies handed down from your ancestors and which are supposed to heal all your ailments. That means the next time you feel weak, exhausted, or just need something to perk you up, the woman of the house is going to feed you with Sage tea. After that, she is going to feed you delicious dishes flavored with this culinary magical herb. Is it a wonder that Sage is one of the most popular of herbs, grown in our herbal gardens, with its lore of healing powers and culinary delights coming to us down the ages? Sage, like a number of very popular cooking herbs originated from the Mediterranean, although it found a home in colder climates, where the frost was not so harsh.e a number of very popular cooking herbs originated from the Mediterranean, although it found a home in colder climates, where the frost was not so harsh. This worldwide conquering of the Sage is due to the fact that traders from the West took it all over the East, and so did the gypsies. The gypsies who are very well-versed in herbal lore used (and still use) Sage extensively to keep them healthy. Apart from using Sage leaves to make their traditional delicious stuffings and sauces, Gypsy children were taught from a very young age to chew on Sage leaves. Not only did this keep their breath fresh, but also kept their mouth, chest, and throat infection free. Sage has a strong taste and is generally used to flavor the richer meats such as duck, pork and goose. Rosemary and sage – both of them go together mixed with thyme, marjoram and other herbs. In ancient times, sages – no pun intended – always advocated that people who were addicted to overeating, eat more Sage because this aided in the digestion of fats, and did not allow it to accumulate on your tummy, legs, hips and thighs. So I would not be surprised that Romans having their parties and bacchanalias would not enjoy such delicacies as larks and peacocks stuffed with Sage, and also – ahummmm, ah well, – dormice sprinkled with poppy seeds, honey, and sage. All these recipes are authentic recipes, taken from an ancient Roman book on Roman cuisine, during the times of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Since then, is it a surprise that for centuries Sage has been highly regarded as a delicious flavoring addition to your cuisine, as well as in medicine, as shown by a traditional saying, “why should a man die while Sage grows in his garden?” That is because it was considered to be a cure-all for a large number of ailments, from which mankind suffered periodically. It was also said that any person growing Sage in his garden would never fail in business. Well, there is some justification here. Plenty of Sage in his food, and he would be working with a clear head, enhanced concentration, The Latin name of sage is Salvia officinalis. The Sage that we use in cuisine is often dried or used fresh, like other members of the Labiateae family like mint. It is cultivated extensively in Yugoslavia, England, Spain, Portugal, Cyprus, England and the USA and Canada.

Thyme is a member of the mint family and is a bushy, wood-based shrub with small yet highly fragranced, grayish green leaves followed by bands of pink or purple colored flowers in the early summers; it grows 15 – 30 cm tall and can be 40 cm wide. There are more than 350 different varieties of thyme all over the world, with French thyme or thymus vulgaris and lemon thyme being the most popular ones; further varieties are stated in the next chapters. Although there are a great many numbers of varieties, the general characteristics of each thyme are usually the same and it is only the color and dimensions that varies.In the medical community, the different species of thymes are distinguished by the composition of their essential oils. Thyme is incredibly versatile and blends seamlessly with almost all kinds of foods, especially in combination with basil, lemon and garlic.Generally, thyme enlightens and brings up the flavor of any dish. This is the reason as to why many of the Italian and French recipes incorporate thyme in their ingredient list. In addition to its culinary benefits, thyme is also used in aromatherapy. The essential oils of thyme are used in many traditional as well as clinical medicines due to their anti-viral, anti-septic, anti-parasitic, anti-rheumatic and anti-fungal properties. To delve a little deeper, thyme is a very strong detoxifying agent making it an ingredient in many of the detox food items. The herb is an excellent immunity booster, encourages white blood formation and resistance to harmful organisms. Thyme is also very effective against infections, digestive and respiratory to highlight a few. It can be taken as a cure to diarrhea and infections in the vagina (including thrush) & fallopian tubes. Its power as an anti-septic can be understood from the fact that as less as 1% thyme oil can be used to make a solution to treat gum and mouth infections. In addition, thyme is also a used as relaxant due to its soothing effect on the bronchi muscles; it helps to relieve recurring cough, asthma, dry coughs, laryngitis and bronchitis. Last but not the least, thyme being a digestive herb enhances appetite, digestion and stimulation of the liver. This is the extent of the medical properties the introduction will go to; detailed accounts on the medicinal properties of thyme will be given in subsequent sections. Thyme is considered native to Asia and southern Europe, i.e. Mediterranean basin; it has also been cultivated in Northern America and is known to thrive there as well. According to the Georgetown University Medical Center, the prevalence of thyme as a medically viable herb can be traced as back as 460 BC when Hippocrates, also known as the father of Western Medicine recognized it and documented its benefits in his work, Hippocratic Corpus. This is why most of the civilizations on the banks of the Mediterranean were prosperous and long-lasting. Some of these include: The Ancient Egyptians had found use of it and were mummifying the corpses of their pharaohs with it. The Ancient Greeks used it to burn incense in their temples and in their baths; they believed of it as a source of courage. Romans used it to purify their rooms and to give aromatic flavoring to alcoholic beverage and cheese.
