8. Thyme
Thyme is a herb from the mint family that you probably recognize from your spice set, but it’s so much more than an afterthought ingredient. But its range of use is impressive, and has been throughout centuries: Ancient Greeks used it as incense, and Ancient Egyptians never embalmed without it. Thanks to its distinctive taste, thyme has remained a culinary staple to this day. But it also boasts a slew of helpful medicinal qualities, which include relieving nausea. It is particularly effective in aromatherapy.
