oregano oil

Oregano oil - what is it really?

Although most people associate oregano mainly with pizza and Italian cuisine, its essential oil is in a completely different league. Oil of oregano is made by steam distillation from the leaves and flowers of the Origanum vulgare plant. It is in these parts of the plant that the most valuable active substances - carvacrol and thymol - known for their antibacterial and antifungal properties, are hidden.

The result is that you get not an aromatic spice, but a highly concentrated, natural essence that has been used for centuries in traditional Mediterranean medicine as a natural antibiotic.

Why use oregano oil?

Natural protection against bacteria and fungi

The greatest strength of oregano oil is its antibacterial action. Studies have shown that carvacrol effectively destroys certain strains of bacteria and fungi. Not surprisingly, it has long been used to combat skin infections, inflammation or oral problems.

Support during colds

Inhalations with oregano oil can be a natural way to unblock a blocked nose and clear the airways. When added to a diffuser, it fills the space with a fresh, intense aroma that brings relief and promotes recovery.

Oregano oil and immunity

Regular use (in the right form and dilution!) helps to strengthen the body's natural defences. It's like a natural shield that you can use during the infectious season when viruses are swirling around.

How to use oregano oil?

For skin care

Oregano oil is very potent and therefore it always has to be diluted. Preferably in a base oil (such as jojoba, coconut or almond oil). Great for skin problems such as imperfections, redness or foot fungus.

In aromatherapy

Add a few drops to a diffuser or bowl of hot water and inhale the vapour. It's a natural support to combat a runny nose, cough and general weakness.

In the home medicine cabinet

Oregano oil can also be used to prepare natural mouthwashes (in the right dilution!) or home preparations for surface disinfection.

Attention to dosage

It is an extremely concentrated oil and therefore it should not be used internally or applied to the skin in its pure form. Always dilute and use according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
