Why is thyme classified as a minimally processed food (NOVA 1) and does it contain any additives?

Thyme is simply dried whole herb without any industrial transformation or added ingredients, so it falls into NOVA group 1, which covers unprocessed or minimally processed foods.

How does the high fiber and protein content of dried thyme contribute to a balanced diet?

The fiber in thyme aids digestion and promotes satiety, while its modest protein content adds a small amount of plant‑based protein, all with very low calories, making it a healthy additive to meals.

Is thyme safe for people with herb allergies or sensitivities, and does it contain any common allergens?

Thyme itself is not considered a major allergen, but individuals with specific herb sensitivities may react; the product lists only thyme as its ingredient, so no other common allergens are present.
