1. Herbal Tea
Steep fresh or dried oregano leaves in hot water for 5–10 minutes. It makes a calming drink, especially useful after meals or during colder months.
2. Essential Oil (Use With Caution!)
- Internal use: Only use food-grade oregano essential oil, and always dilute it in a carrier oil or take it in capsule form under medical supervision.
- Topical use: Mix one or two drops with a carrier oil like coconut or olive oil, and apply sparingly to small areas of skin (never apply undiluted or on broken skin).
Important: Always speak with a healthcare professional before using oregano oil internally.
Conclusion
Oregano is more than just a seasoning — it’s a potent, natural remedy with a long tradition and growing scientific support. With mindful use, it can become a valuable part of your holistic health toolkit.
