The effective zit zapper growing in your garden? Thyme! What's great on roasted chicken and often grows like wild along garden beds and paths may have the power to fight acne.
According to researchers at Leeds Metropolitan University in the U.K., thyme steeped in alcohol to make what's known as a "tincture" (the old-fashioned cure-alls from our grandmothers' generation) effectively killed bacteria that causes acne better than most of the acne products on the market today.
Do you have thyme in your backyard or in a pot on your balcony?
