GOT something you want to kick hard and fast? If you haven’t used an oregano essential oil yet, you’re in for a potent ride. Oregano is one of nature’s most powerful defenses against threats to your health, and that’s not just hearsay.
Studies have shown it to be as effective, and often more so than modern pills and potions.
First, exercise a little caution. Until you’ve familiarized yourself with this remarkable oil, treat it with respect. It is both potent and spicy. The best way to use it for immune support and to really kick a bug to the curb, take it internally. Please be aware: I only recommend the highest-quality essential oils for any usage, but especially internal.
Once you have a trustworthy brand, take three to five drops three times daily until you feel better. This is a high dose for oregano and you don’t need it for daily health maintenance. Use it as an aggressive approach for treating a health problem. As soon as you’re feeling better, you don’t need to continue the dosage.
Capsule
You can ingest oregano essential oils by putting several drops in an empty gel capsule and taking it like a pill. This is the most convenient and comfortable way for many people, provided you don’t mind the capsule. The other great thing about this method is you can add other supportive essential oils, such as frankincense, lemon and On Guard Protective Blend, without having to taste them.
Orally
Another way to take oregano oil is simply by adding it to water or any beverage, or food. My husband can take oregano oil in a little water and be fine. For me, water does not help it go down, it makes it even more harsh. So, I like to dilute it either in coconut milk (full fat) or coconut oil. I have some friends who like to put it in a spoonful of honey or maple syrup. Whatever you decide, unless you’re taking it in a capsule, my advice is “start low and increase slowly.” In other words, do it one drop at a time if you think you might have sensitivity. Once you’ve done it once or twice, you’ll get the hang of it.
Tingles
If worse comes to worst, you’ll get some on your lips and you will have very plump, lively kissers for about two minutes. If this happens, avoid using water to remove, it as the H20 only will drive the oil deeper into your skin. To alleviate the sensation more quickly, just apply some coconut or any fat/oil and wipe.
And don’t let this scare you. Oregano has many benefits besides destroying those foreign invaders, and you will be so glad you two became friends.
Health maintenance vs fighting a threat
I have many clients who love this and other essential oils and use them year-round to support every system, tissue and cell of their bodies. However, even some of my most enthusiastic clients forget that there is a difference between using them while in perfect health and using themwhile they or someone they love are fighting something.
In general, while your body needs support to fight off a threat, you will need to take more frequent doses. Think of oregano as the bazooka during that time. Unless your natural health professional says otherwise, you shouldn’t need oregano more than a few times in the day.
However, I recommend using a few drops of other oils, such as Breathe Respiratory Blend (contains eucalyptus, peppermint, lemon and some others), On Guard Protective Blend (contains clove, cinnamon, rosemary and other powerhouses), melaleuca, frankincense and wild orange, as much as every hour until the signs of imbalance are gone.
Don’t forget other goodies, such as apple cider vinegar, elderberry syrup and lots of healthy warm soup or broth. Try avoiding sugar and get plenty of both clean water and rest.
If you have some specific questions about oregano essential oils, ask away. Until then, Mama Esse…out.

Hey Esse, I strongly believe oil or oregano should always be present in our homes due to its
outstanding health benefits. I can conveniently say oregano oil has been a great doctor to me
and my family. I first used oregano oil a few years after I was diagnosed of Hepatitis C type II in a rare form. This is after I have tried so many type of medical treatments but failed. With the
medical treatments the side effects were terrible to bare. I followed the popular Hep C program advertised regularly on TV. There was not a single thing I didn’t do but still nothing seemed to help. I was always at the hospital for new trials and treatments until a nurse referred me to oregano. I said to my self why not give it a try I decided to buy the Gel capsules and was told to place under the tongue 3 to 4 four times daily and I was shocked when it put the Hep C in remission. Multiple tests were conducted and several examinations and there was not a trace of Hep C virus. Since then I have been free and never been diagnosed of Hepatitis of any form.
