ABOUT OREGANO ESSENTIAL OIL

When diffused, oregano is employed to boost immune function, especially during the cold and flu season, and to support respiratory function to help ease mucuos production. Properly diluted (1% or less), oregano may be used topically to enhance immunity and circulation on the head and sinuses, mouth and skin. Oil of oregano is also known for boosting and strengthening immune function and for helping to regulate menstruation.

Floracopeia’s Greek Oregano is high in Carvacrol (almost 82%) and low in Thymol.
