Oregano and Bee Allergies

[Guest guest]

Hey Rick,

 

Lemme tell you what one feller says about neutralizing stings .. even

snake bites. Not saying I buy it but saying I would try it. I'll begin

by saying this feller sells the product he pushes so he might be driven

my other than a desire to help human critters .. ;-p

 

Y'all know that I'm a strong believer in the power of Oregano EO - and

that I've researched and written on it for years. Well ... Dr. Cass

Igram used to ask me questions about it .. back when I was his supplier.

 

He has a book called, " The Cure is in the Cupboard: How do use Oregano

for Better Health. " Pages 101 and 102 cover Venomous Bites.

 

He says .. paraphrased:

 

1. Get medical attention.

2. Oregano can save lives from bee stings because it is an antivenom.

3. Oregano appears to neutralize the any venom on contact.

4. Get medical attention.

 

Goes on that direct application of Oregano to the wound can only act as

an aid if not a cure and it certainly won't do any harm.

Glad you found something that works. I do believe in the power of

Oregano oil for many things .. and have a kit bag full of properly

conducted scientific tests that support this .. but if I had to depend

on paying Cass Igram's prices, I'd not use it.

 

His oils are from Turkey .. his site is http://www.DrOregano.com

 

His .45 fl oz oregano bottle ($29.95) is at this URL

http://www.smartcart.com/droregano/index.cgi?item_num=3582400001

 

Considering that he's using like 5% or less oregano oil, figure the

above price X TWENTY and you get the real price of a half ounce - like,

its $599 .. ;-P

 

Igram doesn't use the word Essential Oils or Hydrosols .. he uses Oil of

this and that and Juice of this and that.

 

All of his stuff is at http://www.droregano.com/herbalremframe.html

 

His so-called Juice of Rose Petals is Rose Hydrosol and it is priced at

$16.99 for 12 ounces .. that's $1.24 an ounce.

 

As a doctor, he is authorized to write: " ESSENCE OF ROSE HAS PROVEN

EFFECTIVE IN HELPING WITH DIGESTIVE PROBLEMS, CIRCULATORY DISORDERS, EYE

DISORDERS, SKIN PROBLEMS, RESPIRATORY PROBLEMS LIKE ASTHMA AND

BRONCHITIS, MENSTRAL CRAMPING AND HEAVY BLEEDING, AS WELL AS ANXIETY AND

PANIC ATTACKS. "

 

I can't write that .. ;-P

 

His prices are unbelievable .. but he is a doctor and can say all the

right words .. ;-) That oughta alert us to the fact that there is a

damn conspiracy in the USA .. folks in the AMA and FDA gotta be sleeping

together .. ;-(

 

> Mullein works on all insect bites and stings, including scorpions and spiders

>

> Many people use Vodka for their extracts, I use Everclear. Rick

 

My thinking is, if I'm all alone, way out in the middle of nowhere, I

get bit, the pick up won't crank, don't got no oregano and I'm pretty

sure I'm going under snakes ... it would be real nice to have a bottle

of vodka or bourbon handy.
