8. Thyme

Thyme has antioxidant and antiseptic properties. Rich in flavonoids, vitamin C, iron and magnesium. It stimulates the appetite and is also used as an expectorant. Its antiseptic action meant that in ancient times it was used to treat wounds. It is also good for toning the skin and hair.

In addition, thyme is one of the medicinal and aromatic plants best adapted to the Mediterranean climate, so if you live in Spain it is possible that you can grow it relatively easily.

Due to its antispasmodic, expectorant and antiseptic properties, thyme is especially indicated in the treatment of certain conditions of the upper respiratory tract, particularly those that occur with irritative cough, laryngitis, bronchitis, asthma, emphysema and flu.
