Potent, spicy essential oil with powerful antimicrobial and immune-supporting properties.
For sore throat relief: Add 1-2 drops of oregano oil to a tablespoon of carrier oil (such as olive or coconut oil) and mix with warm water for gargling. Gargle for 30 seconds and spit out. Alternatively, dilute 1-2 drops in a teaspoon of honey and consume slowly, allowing it to coat the throat. For severe sore throats, steam inhalation with 2-3 drops of oregano oil in hot water can provide additional relief. Oregano oil capsules (following package directions) can also be effective for persistent sore throats. CAUTION: Always dilute oregano oil before use, as it is extremely potent and can cause irritation if used undiluted.
