1. Use it as a spice
With a fragrance, thyme is a wonderful addition to bean, egg and vegetable dishes. You can use it, either in its fresh or dried form, as a spice, adding it to meat, vegetables and your daily diet. This will make your digestive tract a non-friendly environment for intestinal parasites, and keep them out of your body.
