More Than Pizza Seasoning: Everything You Need to Know About Carvacrol Content
When you think of Oregano, you probably picture a pizza topping. But did you know that the wild variety, Origanum vulgare, is one of the most potent medicines found in nature? For thousands of years, ancient healers used the "Joy of the Mountain" to treat respiratory infections, digestive upset, and wounds. We bottle this volatile oil to provide a natural alternative for immune defense.
The Secret Weapon: Carvacrol
What makes Mediterranean Oregano so special? The active ingredient is a phenol known as Carvacrol. It effectively punches holes in the armor of pathogens, causing them to perish. While common kitchen oregano has low levels of this compound, Remedy's Nutrition® Wild Mediterranean Oregano is standardized to contain high levels of Carvacrol. Together, these compounds create a "broad-spectrum" natural antibiotic.
Respiratory Relief
Timing is everything when fighting a virus. Taking Mediterranean Oregano at the first sign of illness can drastically shorten the duration of a cold. It acts as an expectorant, helping to loosen phlegm and clear sinus congestion. It provides immediate relief for stuffy noses and chest pressure.
Liquid Oil vs. Capsules: Which is Best?
Remedy's Nutrition® offers this potent herb in two forms: Liquid Oil and Softgels/Capsules. It is great for topical use (diluted) on nail fungus or for gargling to soothe a sore throat. They are perfect for digestive issues as they deliver the oil directly to the gut. If you are new to oregano oil, we recommend the capsules for convenience and comfort.
Common Questions About Oregano Oil
-
Can I take it every day?
Oregano oil is powerful, so we recommend "cycling" it. Take it for 2-4 weeks to clear an infection, then take a break.
-
What does it taste like?
The liquid oil is "hot" and spicy, similar to chili peppers. If you cannot handle the strong taste, Remedy's Nutrition® Capsules are the perfect tasteless alternative.
-
Does it kill parasites?
Carvacrol helps create an environment where intestinal parasites cannot survive. It is often used as part of a comprehensive parasite cleanse protocol.
-
Why not kitchen oregano?
The oregano on your pizza (Origanum majorana) has very little medicinal value. Remedy's Nutrition® sources wild Origanum vulgare from the Mediterranean mountains, where the soil conditions create the highest potency oil.
