Description: Oregano Oil 1500mgDietary Supplement Made in the United States (3 Bottles, 180 Capsules) Botanically known as Origanum vulgare, oregano is a flowering plant from the same family as mint. It is often used as an herb to flavor food. Although it is native to Europe, it now grows all over the world. Oregano has been popular ever since the Greeks and Romans used it for medicinal purposes in ancient times. In fact, the name oregano comes from the Greek words "oros," meaning mountain, and "ganos," meaning joy or delight. Oregano oil is made by air-drying the leaves and shoots of the plant. Once they are dried, the oil is extracted and concentrated by steam distillation. The oil contains compounds called phenols, terpenes and terpenoids, which have powerful antioxidant properties and are responsible for its fragrance:Carvacrol: The most abundant phenol in oregano oil. It has been shown to stop the growth of several different types of bacteria.Thymol: A natural antifungal that can also support the immune system and protect against toxins.Rosmarinic acid: A powerful antioxidant that helps protect against damage caused by free radicals.Benefits of Oregano Oil: May Help Lower Cholesterol.Studies have shown that oregano oil may help lower cholesterol. In one study, 48 people with mildly high cholesterol were given diet and lifestyle advice to help lower their cholesterol. Thirty-two participants were also given 0.85 ounces (25 ml) of oregano oil after each meal. After three months, those given the oregano oil had lower "bad" LDL cholesterol, and higher "good" HDL cholesterol, compared to those just given diet and lifestyle advice. Powerful Antioxidant.Antioxidants help protect the body from damage caused by free radicals. It is thought that free radical damage plays a role in aging and the development of some diseases, such as heart disease. Free radicals are everywhere, and are a natural product of metabolism. One study compared the antioxidant content of 39 commonly used herbs, and found that oregano had the highest concentration of antioxidants. It found that oregano contained 3-30 times the levels of antioxidants in the other herbs studied, which included thyme, marjoram and St. John's wort. Oregano also has 42 times the antioxidant level of apples and four times that of blueberries, gram per gram. This is thought to be mostly due to its rosmarinic acid content. Because oregano oil is very concentrated, you need much less oregano oil to get the same antioxidant benefits as you would with fresh oregano. May Improve Gut Health.Oregano may benefit gut health in a number of ways. Gut symptoms such as diarrhea, pain and bloating are common and can be caused by gut parasites. One study gave 600 mg of oregano oil to 14 people who had gut symptoms as a result of a parasite. After daily treatment for six weeks, all participants experienced a reduction in parasites, and 77% were completely cured. Participants also experienced a reduction in gut symptoms and tiredness associated with the symptoms. Anti-Inflammatory Properties.Inflammation in the body is linked to a number of adverse health effects. Research has shown that oregano oil may reduce inflammation. One study found that oregano oil, along with thyme oil, reduced inflammatory markers in the blood in mice that had colitis. Carvacrol, one of the key components in oregano oil, has also been linked to reducing inflammation. May Help You Lose Weight.Thanks to oregano oil's carvacrol content, it may help with weight loss. In one study, mice were either fed a normal diet, a high-fat diet or a high-fat diet with carvacrol. Those given carvacrol alongside their high-fat diet gained significantly less weight and body fat compared to those just given a high-fat diet. Furthermore, carvacrol appeared to reverse the chain of events that can lead to the formation of fat cells.
