No one in America seems to know a great deal about Oil of Wild Oregano. The plant from which Oil of Wild Oregano is derived is entirely different than the oregano which we are familiar. Oil of Wild Oregano is the essential oil of the wild oregano plant (Oregano Vulgare) which is produced by steam distillation. Oil of Wild Oregano exhibits curative powers superceding anything previously known. Oil of Wild Oregano's antiseptic properties are many. Nothing else in nature can match it and many pharmaceutical drugs are weaklings when compared to it. Singlehandedly, it can kill and/or block the growth of virtually any fungus (including the ever tenacious Candida) as well as inhibiting the growth of the majority of bacteria (something prescription antibiotics often fail to accomplish). This ability to halt the growth of both bacteria and fungi makes Oil of Wild Oregano unique. Parasites also fall prey to Oil of Wild Oregano, and virtually all species including worms, amoebas and protozoans fall prey to its killing power. Oil of Wild Oregano, like all essential oils, contains a wide range of substances. One well studied compound that predominates in the oil is carvacrol, a type of phenol. Wild Oregano's rich content of this antiseptic is what makes it unique. Phenols are potent antiseptics. Wild Oregano's phenol, carvacrol, is significantly more potent than the synthetic variety. A second phenolic compound, thymol, is also present in Oil of Wild Oregano. Carvacrol and thymol work synergistically, packing a double punch of antiseptic power. This explains why it is infinitely more potent than commercial phenol in microbial killing. The fact is Oil of Wild Oregano contains over 50 compounds which possess antimicrobial actions. Oil of Wild Oregano has been evaluated thoroughly in the test tube regarding its antiseptic properties. A mere 1% solution induced complete destruction of fungi, staph and e-coli. It has recently been successful in treating drug resistant bacteria. California Natural is proud to offer Oil of Wild Oregano in its product line. As always, California Natural Oil of Wild Oregano is guaranteed for effectiveness, purity, dosage and complete customer satisfaction.
