What an Incredible
Herb!
- Wild oregano has been used for centuries in the Mediterranean to
help people maintain good health. As with many folk remedies, modern
science has been late to the table starting research on this incredible
plant. Recent laboratory studies have confirmed the powerful antibiotic,
anti-fungal and anti-viral properties of wild oregano oil.
-
- Not all oregano varieties or oils are equal. The medicinal
effectiveness of the wild Mediterranean species is unparalleled. This
particular species has a unique balance of compounds, which work
together synergistically. Gathered wild, Mediterranean oregano is free
of the chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and fungicides that
contaminate conventionally grown crops and would make the essential oils
produced from them toxic.
- Essential oil from the oregano plant is produced by steam
distillation of the leaves and flowering tops. Essential oils are highly
concentrated volatile oils consisting of the natural chemicals that are
to be found in all plants. Many of these substances have beneficial
effects for the body, mind and mood.
-
- Oregano oil contains four main groups of chemicals that contribute
to its potent healing powers. Phenols, such as carvacrol and thymol, act
as antiseptics and antioxidants, while terpenes, which include pinene
and terpinene, exhibit antiseptic, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and
anesthetic properties. Linalool and bonreol are two long-chain alcohols
found in oregano oil, which add to the antiviral and antiseptic
qualities. Esters are potent antifungal agents. Two that are found in
abundance in oregano oil are linalyl acetate and geranyl acetate.
-
- Although there is a combined effect of the many compounds found in
oregano oil, its effectiveness is largely attributed to its primary
ingredient, a phenol named carvacrol. When lab tested, carvacrol was
found to be one of the most potent antibiotics known to science.1 In
tests done at Georgetown University, it was found to be more effective
than penicillin, streptomycin and even vancomycin (considered to be the
strongest of all antibiotics). Unlike pharmaceutical antibiotics,
oregano oil does not create resistant strains of mutant bacteria. It is
able to naturally, and effectively, eliminate any pathogen that is
unfortunate enough to cross its path.
Immune Stimulant
As an immune system booster, oregano is unparalleled in the plant
kingdom. It is many times stronger than echinacea or goldenseal. A couple
of drops daily are enough to supercharge your immune system, which is your
first and most powerful defense against disease.
Antibiotic and Antiseptic
Tooth and gum infections respond quickly to oregano oil, due to its
powerful antibacterial and antiseptic properties. The oil is applied
directly to the gums and teeth. Regular treatment will vastly improve oral
health and hygiene. Many people suffering from a variety of chronic
infections have seen them disappear quickly after using the oil internally
and externally (please see the sidebar for a list of conditions for which
oregano oil has proven beneficial).
Food Poisoning
In a recent study, approximately 20 percent of meat samples obtained
from grocery stores contained antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Vegetarians
can be affected by food poisoning, as well. Salmonella and E. coli have
been found on such vegetables as iceberg lettuce and alfalfa sprouts,
resulting in food poisoning. Restaurant food is often contaminated due to
poor hygiene or improper washing of produce. By using oregano oil daily,
you can significantly reduce your chances of being one of the 84 million
cases of food poisoning that occur annually in North America.
Antiviral
Oregano oil has been used very successfully in treating viral
conditions, such as colds, flu, shingles, herpes and warts. The fact that
wild oregano oil can stop a cold or flu if taken at the first sign of
symptoms is indicative of its amazing powers.
Antifungal
The aggressive antifungal properties of oregano oil work effectively
against stubborn fungal infections such as candida and nail fungus. You
may use the oregano oil internally for candida and both externally and
internally for nail fungus. Mix a few drops with shampoo to get rid of
dandruff or seborrhea, which are caused by fungal infection of the scalp.
Take some to the locker room to eradicate athlete’s foot.
Internally:
Use the Oil of Oregano on or in the body.
It is strong, so when using it internally, start with small amounts,
like one or two drops twice daily in juice.
Take one drop twice per day working your way to one drop four times per
day. Mix with one teaspoon of honey, maple syrup, or olive oil to
improve palatability. Take for a period of 15 days and then stop for 15
days. Then repeat the process.
Externally:
Oil of oregano may also be applied
topically to treat itches, infections of the skin, gums, teeth, and just
about any orifice in the body. Exercise care if you use it in the
genital region where it is best mixed with olive oil or coconut oil
before application (1 drop per teaspoon of olive oil or coconut
oil/butter).
There are no side effects and it is compatible with any other natural
remedy or prescription drug.
