I would like to know whether Foeniculum vulgare (fennel seeds) or Thymus vulgaris (thyme) have proven antifungal effects, and if they have, on which fungi?Both fennel and thyme have antimicrobial properties, including antifungal effects, according to "Bartram's Encyclopedia of Herbal Medicine" (available from Richters). Bartram does not give a list of fungi that are affected by but other references say that thyme is effective against ringworm, athlete's foot, thrush and other fungal infections.
