Organo Oil
Oregano is a well-known spice in Italian cooking. This plant is just as useful in the medicine cabinet as it is in the kitchen ...
Oregano can be used topically for skin infections, like Athlete's foot, ringworm and folliculitis. Oregano is useful for treating colds, sore throats, coughs, chronic respiratory conditions, yeast infections, viral infections, bacterial infections, diarrhea and indigestion.
I personally use oil of oregano a few times throughout the first day or two I am feeling a sore throat coming on. I can say, without exception, that the sore throat never progresses and symptoms have disappeared within a couple days of starting the oregano oil.
Oregano can be purchased as a loose herb, encapsulated herb, spice or essential oil. The loose herb can be made into a poultice for topical application, used for inhalation or drank as a tea for internal use. Oregano may be included in combination teas for soothing digestion. The spice is often added to dishes for prevention of bacterial contamination.
The essential oil of oregano is a highly concentrated substance. It comes in various strengths, sometimes referred to as a percentage (i.e.: P73). Make note of the phenol carvacrol, one of the most active ingredients in oregano, responsible for the majority of its medicinal benefits. A carvacrol content of 70 % or more is optimal.
Externally, you can apply to almost any affected area, although use extreme caution when treating highly sensitive mucosal membranes, such as the vagina and anal areas. It is highly recommended, when treating these areas that you use a carrier oil to dilute the essential oil. Olive, almond or coconut oils are all good options. Before applying externally, you may want to test a small area of skin with the non-diluted essential oil, to ensure there is no reaction or determine is dilution is necessary. A few drops of oil of oregano can be added to shampoos to treat dandruff, eczema or seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp. It can also be rubbed (using fingertip) on the gums to treat and prevent gingivitis, as well as a few drops added on your toothbrush to kill germs and treat bad breath.
When taking internally, 1-3 drops under the tongue, 3x/daily is a typical dosage. Acutely, you can do up to 3 drops every hour for the first day you are experiencing signs and symptoms of cold, flu or food poisoning (for up to 10 hours).
Essential oils can be toxic when taken internally in high doses. Oil of oregano should not be used in pregnancy or lactation. If using long-term, consider taking breaks and repopulating/supporting healthy gut flora with the use of probiotic or with herbs such as slippery elm.
Thyme
Thyme can help you beat coughs, colds and congestion ...
Thyme was traditionally used as a spice. It keeps food from going bad and reduces food borne illnesses because it has antiseptic and anti-fungal properties. Thyme also soothes the respiratory tract, reducing coughs and congestion. Thyme tea can be used as a drink or, either the herb or essential oil, can be used as a steam inhalation for the same purpose.
Thyme oil is a topical antifungal for both the skin and scalp. It is usually used today for coughs, colds, asthma and fungal infections.
Thyme can be purchased as a loose herb, spice or essential oil. The loose herb can be made into a tea for topical application or internal use. Thyme may be a part of teas for upper respiratory tract infections. The spice is often added to dishes for prevention of bacterial contamination.
The essential oil of thyme is a highly concentrated substance. When using essential oils, especially in sensitive areas, be sure to test the oil first on a small area. If necessary, dilute the oil in carrier oil, such as olive, almond or any cooking oil. Thyme oil or herb can be used for steam inhalation.
Essential oils are toxic when taken internally. Thyme may cause an allergic reaction when used topically or internally. Individuals with ulcers, intestinal inflammation or other gastrointestinal conditions or those with irritation in the urinary tract may not wish to use thyme.
Risk information:Consult a health care practitioner if symptoms persist or worsen or for continuous use beyond six weeks. Do not use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Discontinue use if hypersensitivity occurs, or if heartburn develops.
