What is Infused Oil?

An infused oil, also referred to as a macerated oil, consists of a carrier oil that has been permeated (“infused” or “macerated”) with one or more herbs or the essential oil of that herb. The benefit to using an infused oil as opposed to a plain carrier oil is that the infused oil will contain the properties of both the carrier oil and the herbs or essential oil and is suitable for direct use for consumer without lot of precautions like concentrated essential oils

Some plants do not have much essential oil contained in them, and in those cases, it is rare or impossible to commercially find an essential oil for that plant species. Infusing the herb into a carrier oil, however, can be a suitable way to still use the herb for aromatherapy purposes.

Infused oils generally have an oily feeling that varies depending on the carrier oil used. They also are not as concentrated as essential oils.

Overview:

You’re probably familiar with thyme’s use as an herb and food seasoning. In addition to livening up the flavor of food, the thyme plant (Thymus vulgaris) is also the source of thyme essential oil.

Thyme oil has antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties. It’s commonly used as a preservative in foods, cosmetics, and toiletries. It can also be found as an ingredient in mouthwash.

Thyme infused oil uses and benefits

There are several studies that support thyme essential oil’s ability to reduce or eliminate foodborne bacteria, support heart health, and alleviate inflammation in the body, among other benefits.

While more research is needed, thyme oil is currently thought to be beneficial when used as part of overall therapeutic programs, not as a solo treatment or cure.

Thyme oil contains several compounds that have health benefits. These compounds include:

carvacrol
thymol
linalool
cineol
camphor
borneol
Next, let’s look at how these compounds are beneficial for different uses of thyme infused oil.

1. Acne
There’s some evidence that thyme oil is effective at reducing acne-causing bacteria on the skin. An animal study that compared thyme oil to oregano oil found that both were able to eliminate bacteria, but that oregano oil was more effective.

2. Alopecia areata
Thyme oil mixed with other essential oils and a carrier oil, coupled with massage, may be used as a treatment to prevent hair lossTrusted Source.

Currently, there’s little data indicating whether or not thyme oil is effective for this condition, although anecdotal evidence indicates that a combination of essential oils that includes thyme oil may be an effective treatment.

3. Breast cancer
One very preliminary study found that wild thyme extract may eventually show promise at fighting breast cancer.

4. Coughs and respiratory tract infections
The thymol content in thyme oil is thought to have antispasmodic properties. When mixed with primrose, thyme essential oil has been shown to be effective at reducing coughs and reducing the duration of respiratory tract infections, such as the common cold.

5. Food preservative
In a study reported in the Journal of Medicine and Life, thyme oil was found to be effective at eliminating food-related bacteria and fungi.

Thyme and thymol have been found to have antibacterial effects against bacterium, including salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, and Helicobacter pylori.

6. Heart disease
A 2010 laboratory study published in the Journal of Lipid Research found that the carvacrol in thyme oil was an effective anti-inflammatory agent with cardioprotective capabilities, making it potentially beneficial for people with heart disease.

7. Oral health
Thymol’s anti-inflammatory effects have been documented in several studies. The thymol in thyme oil is effective at reducing inflammation and infection.

According to recent research, thymol’s anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties make it beneficial for oral health. The compound is an ingredient in several dental products, including Listerine Cool Mint mouthwash.

What are carrier oils?
Carrier oils and essential oils are made from plants. Carrier oils are used to dilute essential oils and “carry” them to your skin. That’s because essential oils are potent and can cause irritation when applied directly to your skin.

Most carrier oils are unscented or lightly scented and don’t interfere with an essential oil’s therapeutic properties. They may be used alone or with other oils to nourish your skin.
