Thyme, dried, ground

Dried, ground thyme is a herb used in small amounts to flavour food. It provides carbohydrate and fibre, along with minerals including calcium and iron. Per 100g, it contains 45g of carbohydrate, 37g of fibre, 1890mg of calcium and 124mg of iron. These figures describe the dried, ground form rather than fresh thyme.

Fibre supports normal bowel function, calcium helps maintain bones and teeth, and iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. However, the amounts of thyme normally used in cooking are much smaller than 100g, so its contribution to nutrient intake is correspondingly smaller. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
