HOME REMEDIES: WILD THYME

Image
  St Hildegard writes: "When God created man, a different type of earth was used to form him. Henceforth, all substances were subject to man, because they sensed that in him was life, and they endeavoured to aid him in him in all his efforts, and man's aim, in turn, was to help them. WILD THYME (THYMUS SERPYLLUM) If someone has flesh so  POORLY NOURISHED  that it looks scab-like, he should often eat wild thyme with meat or porridge.  An ointment prepared from  fresh fat and wild thyme  helps against  DRY, SCALY PATCHES  on the skin.  To remedy a  WEAK, DEFICIENT BRAIN , it is recommended to eat bread rolls made from wheat flour and wild thyme.
