Thyme raw honey and other dark-coloured kinds of honey have the highest antioxidants properties of all types of honey.
Antioxidants help neutralise free radicals, which are produced by such things as sunlight, cigarette smoke, air pollution, pesticides, and infection.
These free radicals are known to contribute to the development of numerous diseases and conditions, including heart disease, various forms of cancer and asthma. They also promote premature ageing of the skin.
Thyme raw honey has anti-bacterial, anti-viral and antiseptic properties and aids in the prevention and treatment of infectious, digestive, and respiratory diseases.
