Thyme, fresh

Nutrition Facts & Diabetes Guide

Fiber runs 14g per 100g, which can blunt post-meal glucose spikes by slowing digestion. No ISO-tested GI value is published for thyme in the Sydney University GI tables, so GlycemicWise shows it as a Tier 5 nutrition reference rather than assigning a green/yellow/red verdict. For a swap with known glucose data, check the alternatives below — each one has a measured GL value.
