Description
The essential oil of Thyme Serpillum (Thymus Serpillum) is a rarity, in fact it is the most widespread in the wild, but it is the least cultivated; combined with Lavender, Rosemary and Sage it formed the so-called vinegar of the four thieves, used as a panacea for all ills.
The Ministry of Health recognizes its healthy action on the well-being of the nose and throat, its ability to thin bronchial secretions and its antioxidant action. It has a digestive function, regulates gastrointestinal motility and helps eliminate air.
