Super Immune™ then combines it with a separate Thyme Thymol and supporting botanicals chosen for complementary functional profiles. It is a constructed formula rather than a single familiar oil carrying the whole burden. Super Immune™ is a concentrated 10 mL aromatic blend with no carrier oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"display: block; border-bottom: 1px solid #e4ddcb; padding: 14px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"cursor: pointer; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.5; list-style-position: inside; color: inherit;\"\u003eWas Benchmark Thyme actually studied, or is its importance mainly historical?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"display: block; margin: 12px 0 4px 0; line-height: 1.65;\"\u003eIt was studied. University of Brighton researchers tested the material—then designated Oil B—against two methicillin-sensitive and two epidemic methicillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus. The blend demonstrated inhibitory and bactericidal activity under direct-contact laboratory conditions and compared favourably with the single linalool-chemotype thyme oil used as the control comparison.

The relationship rests on the producer's extraction work, consistency, documentation, and the quality of the materials received over time. The extract retains what a Myrrh CO₂ should: smoke without a burnt note, balsamic sweetness without heaviness, and a warm resinous character that holds up well. It has depth, but it is not crude or tar-like.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"display: block; margin: 0 0 14px 0; line-height: 1.65;\"\u003eCurrent documentation identifies organic \u003cem\u003eCommiphora myrrha\u003c\/em\u003e resin from Somalia, processed in Germany as a high-pressure CO₂ select extract.
