Reintroducing Borneol Thyme,
T. satureioides
Borneol Thyme (T. satureioides) has a unique composition that almost miraculously fits the demands of the current health issues. It contains about 30% borneol, which is practically not found in higher concentrations in any of the common oils in aromatherapy.
Borneol inhibits pro inflammatory Cytokines (TNF α
, IL-1β
IL-6). As the oil regulates these important immuno parameters it has been used in French style aromatherapy as an effective immuno modulator, which counteracts the excess Cytokines that arise with the overreaction of the immune system caused by certain viruses and other triggers. It downregulates excessive immune reactions without compromising its necessary defensive functions.
