These are the benefits of thyme, sage, parsley, and other herbs
German nutrition expert Zielke Restmeier said that herbs have many health benefits, as they are rich in vitamins such as vitamin A, C, and K, and minerals such as iron and potassium.
Restmeier explained that herbs are rich in secondary plant compounds that have an anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory effect. They also work to lower high blood pressure, and they are rich in aromatic oils that stimulate appetite or provide a feeling of calm and relaxation.
Here is a quick look at the most famous herbs and their most prominent health benefits:
parsley
