Oregano Essential Oil

Oregano (Origanum vulgare) is a perennial herb native to the Mediterranean and Central Asia, used medicinally since ancient Greece — Hippocrates himself prescribed it as an antiseptic and digestive remedy. Steam-distilled from the flowering herb, oregano essential oil is one of the most potent natural antimicrobial oils known. Oregano essential oil is dominated by carvacrol and thymol — compounds with clinically studied antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and antiparasitic properties. It is widely used today as a natural immune booster, antifungal and antibacterial topical remedy, natural food preservative, respiratory support aromatherapy blend, and as one of the most powerful broad-spectrum antimicrobial essential oils available.
