Why OregaPet?

Natural First Aid with Oil of Oregano
Used for thousands of years, Oil of Oregano has been "rediscovered". Recognized as one of the world's most powerful and useful natural remedies, Oil of Oregano is scientifically proven to be an effective treatment against a variety of disease-causing organisms. A powerful antioxidant1 and anti-inflammatory, Oil of Oregano is a non-toxic and healthy dietary supplement that can help support your pet's defence systems, both inside and out.

Support for Infections and Infestations
Viral, fungal, parasitic and bacterial infections are not only uncomfortable for your pets but pose real threats to their well-being. Infections in healthy young animals usually trigger an immune response, which can fight off infection. Oral and topical First Aid support and prevention plans are always best to ensure your pet's health and safety. Oil of Oregano has no known contra-indications or adverse drug interactions. It has been successfully used alone and in combination with conventional treatments.

Oregano

Oregano extracts have antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal activity. Chronic infections, like candidiasis, and contagious new viruses, like SARS, seem to be inhibited by oregano. Oregano not only kills infecting microbes in the respiratory tract but also acts as an expectorant (helps to expel mucus) and antispasmodic (relieves coughing).

In the digestive tract oregano soothes digestion and decreases diarrhea, by stopping intestinal spasms. It also kills gastrointestinal microbes and decreases gas and bloating. There are some theories that Crohn's and Colitis may have a triad of predisposing factors, including an unbalanced gut flora, and a trigger, commonly physical or emotional stress, and a bacterial or microbial invasion of some sort. Given this theory, studies are currently investigating the use of oregano oil to treat these IBD conditions. Animal studies are already showing promising results.

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.
