INDICATIONS:
Wild Oregano (Origanum vulgare) has a history of medical use that dates back to ancient Greece1. It was used extensively, both internally and externally, as medicine2. To the Greeks this plant was sacred and synonymous with health1. Wild Oregano has a unique (also found in Thyme and Marjoram) essential oil content called phenolic compounds that have anti-microbial activity3. Current medical research has found the major phenol, Carvacrol, to be the active biochemical in Wild Oregano that provides the anti-microbial action.
Oregano Oil is the most powerful natural antimicrobial compound for acute use. It is also safe. Oregano Oil works like tea tree oil, goldenseal and grapefruit seed extract all in one. Consider it as an antibacterial herbal medicine that may kill the microbes on contact. It is not a booster like Echinacea, but a killer for acute inundation and protection when traveling or if vulnerable to microbial breakdown. Wild Oregano Oil has an immediate impact on acute germ inundation and it can be used safely on a daily basis long term or can be used for acute care for those with immune deficiency and are prone to getting sick suddenly. Providing a broader spectrum of benefit than Echinacea, Tea Tree, Goldenseal and Grapefruit Seed extract combined, Carvacrol circulates in the blood with anti-microbial action. Powerful actions of Oregano Oil include: Anti-septic & Anti-microbial4,5, Anti-fungal7, Anti-parasitic6, Anti-spasmodic2, and Expectorant2,8
Wild Oregano Oil has a wide range of clinical applications. It is a powerful anti-microbial agent that will aid destruction of bacteria and parasites on contact4,5,6. Oil of Oregano also may kill yeast, molds7 and is the most effective natural product to help kill Candida. In Candida, combine with Digest Ease/Digest-Aid to increase innate digestive enzymes to reacidify the digestive pH so that Candida cannot proliferate. It is a traveler’s friend, especially in 3rd world countries as it will help keep parasites (from amoebas to giardia) and unusual bacteria and virus form gaining a foothold in the body. Oregano oil may kill parasites in pets when added to their food.
Wild Oregano Oil can be used topically but must be greatly diluted first. Dilute a few drops of Oregano Oil into 1 oz. of oil.
