By now, your body is SCREAMING FOR PROTECTION
An easy natural strategy is to form a “virtual” barrier between you and the flying germs is Oregano.
Native to Mediterranean regions, oregano has been used for centuries as a pungent, warming spice in cooking and baking, as well as a healing remedy. A valued digestive aid, its consumption enhances digestive digestion and acts as a diuretic.
Oregano (Origanum vulagare), also known as Common Turkish Oregano, European Oregano, and Wild Oregano, is one of the nature’s treasures. The oil is distilled from fresh, handpicked oregano leaves. Medicinally it has a highly deserved reputation as a potent natural remedy, attributed to the over 130 medicinally and nutritionally active compounds that it contains. Chief among these compounds are the phenols, carvacrol and thymol, two compounds that act as exceptionally strong health promoting agents.
Internally, carvacrol and thymol effectively support your body’s immune, digestive and respiratory systems. This action enables oregano to act as a healer and prevent a multitude of conditions that affect these vital body systems.
Carvacrol and thymol are medicinally exceptional with numerous uses including: anti-inflammatory (reduces pain & inflammation), antioxidant (reduces free radical damage), ant plaque (combats plaque), antibacterial (attacks bacteria), fungicidal (destroy fungi), candidicide (destroys Candida), expectorant (loosens phlegm & mucus) and carminative (prevents intestinal gas & cramps).
By incorporating oregano you can add safe, natural antibacterial and antimicrobial properties to shampoo, soap, detergent and household cleansers. This can reduce the potential for spreading colds, flu and disease. According to the Mayo clinic and the CDC (United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) “hand washing prevents colds”. Adding Oil of Oregano creates “super hand washing”.
Properly formulated and manufactured oil of oregano products can combat infection and be used without fear of creating the resistant “super bugs”. These resistant bugs result from misuse and over use of other antibacterial products and antibiotics. Oil of oregano is the natural, safe, effective way to promote good health without negative side- effects.
You can buy Oregano oil in any health food store.
