About oregano oil:
Recent laboratory research, conducted at Weber State University (Ogden, Utah), has shown oregano oil to have a remarkable kill rate of 99% against in vitro (outside of the human body) colonies of Streptococcus pneumoniae, even when used in 1% concentration. (The S. pneumoniae is responsible for many kinds of lung and throat infections.)
Oregano oil also has strong immune-enhancing properties, and supports the digestive and respiratory systems.
One of my friends said that, when she wore oregano oil, she smelled like an Italian restaurant. That might be true, but its fragrance also creates a feeling of strength and security. It's a nice trade-off.
How to use: Apply topically neat (i.e.: undiluted) to the bottoms of the feet. Dilute with fractionated coconut oil if applying elsewhere on the skin. Add to food for flavoring, or dilute in rice milk to use as a dietary supplement. Diffuse to purify air.
There are so many powerful uses for oregano oil, I'd strongly encourage you to obtain a copy of the Modern Essentials, 2nd Edition and learn how to use this amazing oil to its fullest advantage.
