Wild Oil of Oregano Usage:

Wild oil of oregano can be used both internally and externally. The vapors can be inhaled to effectively combat lung complaints and coughs. The oil should be kept away from the eyes and mucous membranes, as well as sensitive skin areas. Children under the age of twelve should not take the oil internally. Children may be treated by diluting the oregano oil in olive oil and rubbing it on the soles of the feet or other areas of the body.

The adage 'less is more' applies to the use of oregano oil. It is extremely potent and should be taken according to directions. Recommended dosages should be followed. Use minimum amounts to observe the effects prior to taking larger dosages. For internal use, only take the Mediterranean species of wild oregano that has been mixed with a high quality olive oil. Other oregano oils are often ineffective and can be dangerous. Many of these oils are mislabelled and, in fact, are not the true oregano. The pure essential oil is far too strong to use externally or internally. For safety, use a brand pre-mixed with olive oil.

Carvacrol and Wild Oregano Essential Oil Facts

A lot of attention has been given to the predominant phenol, Carvacrol, which is a large and important component of wild Oregano oil. Depending on the quality of the Oregano, part of the plant distilled, expertise of the distiller and yearly variations in growing conditions, Carvacrol can be found ranging from approximately 30-87% in traditionally distilled oils. Due to the attention Carvacrol has received and the unfortunate thinking in Europe and America that more is better, we see products on the market boasting unrealistically high levels of Carvacrol. Distillers have found that by adding Carvacrol to the water during distillation that they can increase the Carvacrol percentage without it being detected in Gas Chromatography (GC) testing. Another method is to fractionate the oil by “boiling off” certain other chemical components of the oil to make the Carvacrol percentage higher. Unfortunately this adulterated or “standardized” oil is not nearly as effective for therapeutic application because the delicate synergy created by nature is thrown out of equilibrium or parts of the puzzle are missing. Lab testing done on the efficacy of pure Carvacrol for destroying pathogens has shown it to be half as effective as pure, unadulterated Oregano oil . The key to Oregano oil’s amazing power is the synergistic combination of naturally occurring chemicals in the ratio in which nature produced them. Carvacrol’s importance may be overestimated by media articles which neglect to mention the other critical chemical components of Oregano oil and their relationship with each other.

Unfortunately, the ” more is better” mind set has provided distillers with the incentive to increase Carvacrol levels, at whatever cost to the end result, in order to cater to demand from this uninformed sector of the marketplace. The researchers and professors and even the good distillers find all this highly amusing as they know that the real curative powers of nature lie in the naturally distilled oil. Lab testing on Oregano’s antibacterial, anti fungal, antiviral, anti-cancer etc. properties has been conducted with naturally distilled, best quality Oregano oil which falls into an average range of 62-85% Carvacrol.

When you consider that the final product has to be well diluted with olive oil to make a safe and therapeutically effective product, differences in Carvacrol percentages mean very little. Each manufacturer blends at a different strength/ratio of olive oil to Oregano oil. The final Carvacrol percentage in the bottle is likely to be in the 5-15% range. Again, if a manufacturer claims that an 'extra strength' product (typically 40-50% Oregano oil) is better by virtue of its strength, they are again mistaken and falling back on the "bigger is better" mentality. The body would rather deal with more of a correctly blended product than an extra strength product. The olive oil greatly aids the body to assimilate the Oregano oil. Pure Oregano essential oil is very caustic and unsafe for therapeutic use. Any knowledgeable herbalist will tell you that a small dosage of a given herb may have a healing effect where a larger dose of the same herb would have the opposite effect. More is not better!

Another thing to watch for is when manufacturers claim Carvacrol counts in round numbers such as 75%, 80% or 85%. GC testing is always done in hundredths i.e. 71.28%. Please ask to see the GC certificate. If you see a round number, chances are it is a counterfeit GC or an adulterated/standardized product. Naturally this does not apply to manufacturers who may claim “not less than 65% Carvacrol” or “Carvacrol between 60-70%”.

 

Usage of Wild Oil of Oregano

Oil of Oregano will kill any kind of “germ”. Proof of this statement can be found in the Quarterly Review of Biology, March 1998 and the Indian Journal of Experimental Biology, June 1977, among other authoritative publications.

Oregano oil has been proven in European studies to be a potent immune modulator. Compared to plants such as echinacea and goldenseal, Wild Oil of Oregano is by far the most effective in boosting the body’s natural immunity. Use 1-3 drops 3x a day to supercharge your immune system and maintain good health. Among the natural antioxidants, oregano oil is one of the most powerful. It protects cells from free radical damage in the same way it prolongs the shelf life of foods. Take a few drops daily under the tongue to slow the effects of aging and maintain healthy cell structure.
Oil of Oregano is an athlete’s best friend due to its anti-inflammatory and anesthetic action. Applied externally, the oil deeply penetrates tissues and in so doing, brings relief and speeds healing and reduces the pain of bruises, sprains, torn and sore muscles, tendonitis, cramps, carpal tunnel syndrome and other similar injuries. Arthritis responds well to this treatment. For topical use you may use it straight from the bottle. For people with sensitive skin you may dilute it by adding 3-5 drops of olive oil or carrier oil to 1 drop of Wild Oil of Oregano. Avoid eyes, mucous membrames and sensitive skin areas. Pain relief and added relief from arthritis, bursitis and other inflammatory conditions may be improved by also taking Oregano oil internally.
Head lice and scabies: Parasites such as head lice and scabies are no match for Oregano oil’s powerful antiparasitic properties. Add a few drops to a tablespoon of shampoo to wash hair and scalp. Add a couple of drops to a tablespoon of vegetable oil to apply to hair after shampoo or to other affected areas. Add a dropperfull to laundry soap to disinfect clothes.

Cryptosporidium, Giardia etc: Add a drop to water that may be unsafe to protect yourself from parasites such as cryptosporidium and giardia as well as bacterial infection. Take 1-3 drops up to 3 times a day to clear yourself of parasites.
Oregano oil is capable of neutralizing venomous bites, making it invaluable in the wilderness or when traveling abroad. It’s an effective first aid treatment for venomous bites of all varieties including bees, snakes and spiders. Oregano oil is also useful for preventing infection from animal bites and other puncture wounds. It reduces inflammation and stops the pain associated with bites and stings. Apply directly to stings or bites. The oil will penetrate into the wound and neutralize toxins and pathogens. Take a few drops internally to amplify the effect.
Colds, flu, shingles and herpes: Use daily to maintain a strong immune system and to weaken the virus. At the first sign of a viral infection such as colds, flu, herpes, shingles etc., take 3-6 drops immediately and continue at a maximum of 3 drops per hour for a maximum of 10 hours. In the case of herpes or shingles, in addition, it is best to apply the oil directly to the spot where tingling may be felt before an outbreak. This will often prevent the outbreak. Due to the heat sensation, oil of oregano should not be used on sensitive skin areas or mucous membranes. Do not use in vagina or anus unless it is very well diluted by adding a drop or two of wild Oil of Oregano to a tablespoon of olive oil. Then test with a small amount first. When treated at the first sign of symptoms, most viral conditions will be rendered harmless. Warts can be treated by applying the Oil of Oregano directly to the wart with cotton wool. It is best to leave the soaked cotton on the wart as long as possibleby taping with adhesive. Repeat this 2 or 3 times a day and take 3 drops under the tongue three times a day for a few months. Planter’s warts can be successfully removed in a few days by applying the oil directly to the wart several times daily. It may help to break the surface of the skin to allow the oil to penetrate to the root of the wart.
Wild Oil of Oregano has been laboratory tested and proven to be as strong as pharmaceutical antibiotics with none of the associated hazards. Use it topically and internally for any kind of infection.

Bedsores: Apply topically to affected area to speed healing and reduce discomfort.

Burns, Cuts and Scrapes: Apply the oil topically immediately to clean and reduce pain in the wound. Quick application may prevent blistering and scarring from light burns and will prevent infection and speed rapid skin recovery in all wounds.

Teeth and Gums: Oregano oil gives effective relief to toothaches by killing the bacteria causing the pain. Apply the oil directly to the infected tooth. Gum disease can be halted by using Wild Oil of Oregano in the mouth. The oil may be applied to infected gums with a clean finger, Q-tip or a drop can be placed on your toothbrush before brushing the teeth. Regular treatment will vastly improve oral health and hygiene.

Food poisoning: In a recent study about 20% of meat samples obtained from grocery stores contained antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Vegetarians can be affected by food poisoning as well. Salmonella and E. coli have been found on such vegetables as iceberg lettuce and alfalfa sprouts, resulting in food poisoning. Restaurant foods may often be contaminated due to poor hygiene of employees or lack of proper washing of the produce After dining, take 3-5 drops of Oregano oil as a preventative. If symptoms occur, take 3 drops hourly for up to 10 hours or until symptoms disappear. By using Hedd Wyn Essentials Oil of Oregano daily, you severely reduce your chances of becoming one of the 84 million cases of food poisoning that occur annually in North America.

Natural antibiotics like Oil of Oregano do not induce antibiotic resistance as do the patented antibiotic drugs. Use Oil of Oregano to boost your immune system and to kill off unfriendly bacteria. This natural remedy provides defense against biological toxins.
Candida: Is a fungus that infects millions of people. Wild Oil of Oregano contains powerful antifungal agents that eliminate Candida effectively and safely. Take 1-3 drops under the tongue or with juice 3 times daily. Some cases may need more aggressive treatment by filling a gel or vegi cap with 5-8 drops of the Oregano oil and taking that once a day with a meal. Continue the treatment for as long as necessary. Avoid foods that contain sugar and refined flour as these feed the Candida. Be sure to drink 8-12 glasses of pure spring water daily to help flush toxins from the blood. These toxins are generated when the Candida dies from coming in contact with the Oregano oil. Prolonged treatment and more aggressive dosages may be required.

Nail fungus: Which is particularly stubborn and hard to get rid of has a powerful enemy in Oregano oil. Wash and dry the nails. Soak them with the Wild Oil of Oregano twice daily. Take 1-3 drops of the Oil of Oregano 3 times daily. Some cases may need more aggressive treatment by adding 5-8 drops of Oregano oil to a gel or vegi cap cap taking that once a day with a meal. Continue treatment for 6 months.Nail fungus is usually a result of Candida infection in the blood. See above. Drink 8-12 glasses of pure spring water daily to flush toxins from the blood.

Athlete’s foot: Oregano oil’s effectiveness in fighting fungal infections such as athlete’s foot make it a must in the locker room. Apply the oil topically to the feet after showering and before bed..

      Product Quality & Standardization

      As a customer, it is your right to know what you are buying. At Hedd Wyn Essentials we are firmly committed to providing the best of what Nature has to offer in its original composition, as nature designed it. In our products, you will find essential oils, herbs and foods which are wildcrafted or grown using organic methods of cultivation, free of chemical pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers.

      Our Certified Organic wildcrafted Oil of Oregano is made from wild Mediterranean Oregano, picked by hand and naturally steam distilled. No additives are used in the process and nothing is taken away. Our cold pressed extra virgin olive oil is Certified Organic. This costs us more but makes a much safer and better tasting product for you, the customer.

      Sometimes we are asked if our Oil of Oregano is standardized. We can proudly say “No, it is not and never will be.” Why? Because standardization involves alteration or adulteration and in the case of Oregano essential oil this does not benefit the consumer. Let us explain.

      A lot of research has been done on Oregano and its chief chemical constituent, a phenol called Carvacrol. Carvacrol is a powerful antiseptic. Oregano oil contains 3 other main classes of chemicals which act synergistically to provide the antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, analgesic, anti-venom and antiparasitic qualities of Oregano oil.

      As powerful as Carvacrol is, it is not the whole story. This has been proven in lab testing. Pure Carvacrol is only half as effective as pure Oregano oil in inhibiting fungal and bacterial growth.

      In order to standardize Oregano oil, something has to be added or taken away. Carvacrol has been chosen as the ingredient to standardize. Carvacrol levels are increased by adding Carvacrol to the water during distillation or afterwards to the oil or by fractionating the essential oil after distillation by “boiling off” other natural components of the oil to make the Carvacrol percentage higher in relation to what is left. In both cases the natural synergy of active constituents in the oil is put out of balance without any thought of the effect that will have on the healing properties of the end product. In fractionation, whole parts of the Oregano plant’s makeup are removed in ignorance of their function!

      At Hedd Wyn Essentials , we would rather trust Mother Nature than men in laboratories. Please review the Gas Chromatography testing report on our Oregano oil. You will see that you are receiving a superior product with high natural Carvacrol levels.

      Please take the time to taste our Oregano oil and compare it to other Oregano oils you have tried. Trusting your own finely tuned sense of taste and smell will tell the story quickly and eloquently.

       

      What our customers say about Oregano Oil

      • JM from Hamilton, Ontario
        I’ve been using your oil of oregano for years. I am a firm believer especially after it cured me in one day from a severe urine infection. I have also been using it over the years on my 7yr old standard poodle. Two years ago while in Florida he developed a bad case of diarrhea with mucous and blood spotting. Apparently there had been some intestinal dog virus going around at the time. I gave him 3 drops of oil of your oregano in a gel cap 2x a day for 5 days along with a rice and beef diet. In one week he was cured. I was thrilled especially since people I knew had spent hundreds of dollars on vet visits and slow results.

        Hello…I wanted to tell you that I have become a devote advocate of your product. A friend of mine told me about it so I decided to try it. After coming in contact and beginning the symptoms of a brutal head cold/sinus virus, I dosed myself with your Wild Oil of Oregano for a day and the next day the symptoms were gone. This was amazing to me as I thought for sure I was done in for the the cold/virus I had watched so many of my family deal with for almost 6 weeks! My family actually had a bet on that I would catch the cold because everyone else did…it was one of those voracious contagious ones. I think it also helped keep me healthy while traveling over the holidays as I avoided my typical “airplane” cold. On occasion I have given a drop or two a day in a glass of juice to my nine year old son and it seems to have kept him out of the cold season so far. I am grateful for discovering your product. I am glad I did not get a flu shot this year and now feel I have some added protection with your Wild Oil of Oregano. I am also glad you are a Canadian company.

        I recently had a outbreak of shingles on my side near the belt line. I applied the Wild Oil of Oregano directly to them a few times a day for about 4 to 5 days. They were healed and almost unnoticeable within a week. Shingles can normally take up to 21 days to heal. I work at a pharmacy; when my coworkers found out I had them they urged me to get to the doctor right away to get a prescription. They were in disbelief when I showed them they were almost gone a week later. I use this product for so many other things. It’s great! Thank you very much.

      Side effects

      Wild Oil of Oregano is a potent antibiotic and antifungal. When you kill these pathogens, they release toxins into the bloodstream. These toxins can make you feel fatigued or create flu-like or cold-like symptoms and in rare cases skin rashes. This is a sign that your body is trying to detoxify. It is known as a healing crisis or a Herxheimer reaction. You may avoid this kind of discomfort by drinking several glasses of pure spring water daily. This will flush the toxins from your blood.

      Most people feel better quickly when they first take Oregano oil. However, if you get any of the above symptoms, reduce your consumption of Oregano oil and drink lots of pure, spring water. Once the symptoms have passed you may again increase your dosage of Oregano oil.

      All of us are completely unique in our body make up. There is no one set dosage that will work for everyone. A certain amount of trial and error may be necessary to determine the optimum dosage level for your particular condition. Listen to your body. It is the best judge. Some people will require less than recommended dosages. Other people will require up to 2 or 3x the recommended dosage. In these cases spread the extra doses over the period of the day rather than taking them all at once. For instance, you would take 3 drops 10x daily rather than 10 drops 3x daily.
