Oregano Essential Oils ** Natural Anti- Fungals - STREP THROAT

[Guest guest]

Hello Mia,

 

Not John here but I will give you an informed opinion.

am trying

There are various groups of Streptococcus that are considered to be

resistent to various antibiotics .. but susceptable to others. Then

we have the groups of Staphylococcus that are in the danger zone as

far as resistence is concerned.

It says

> 1 to 3 drops on the bottle (under the tongue). (Snipped)

 

I will say without concern of even being slightly incorrect that when

anyone has a bottle of Oil of Anything .. in this case, Oil of

Oregano .. they are in possession of a diluted oil and that is why

the sellers do not call it by its proper name .. Oregano Essential

Oil. Odds are that if they do use a botanical name they are calling

it Origanum vulgare but it might not be .. and it matters not because

any of the Carvacrol rich Origanums will produce the same results.

 

The oil is diluted so they can make such recommendations .. it is too

weak to really cause harm .. they could not recommend it otherwise

and I promise that if you put a drop of pure Oregano EO under your

tongue .. or even let it touch your lips .. you are gonna learn a new

dance step.

 

Putting Essential Oils under the tongue is a fad (marketing hype)

that was created some years back by Cass Igram of the company, North

American Herb & Spice .. and it has been adopted by many spin offs of

that organization. Not long ago, North American Herb & Spice was

fined 2.5 million dollars and are still having to deal with the FCC

and FDA on some other issues that might get them into more hot water.

 

I am not a medical doctor so I am not allowed to make recommendations

that could be interpreted as prescribing medicine without a license.

But .. if it were my daughter I would purchase a bottle of pure

Oregano Essential Oil from any of the many people who offer it .. I

would use Origanum vulgare or Origanum onites or Origanum dubium

Carvacrol .. and I would have my child sniff it straight from a

cotton ball. The principal of Aromatherapy (which does work) is to

inhale the volatile molecules of various oils .. in through the

olfactory system .. and from there is does well in entering the body.

 

There is absolutely no scientific or even empirical evidence to

support the use of Oregano via absorption under the tongue .. and the

evidence in support of ingestion is a bit flakey in that they have

not been able to make firm determinations of what form a chemical

takes when it encounters stomach acid .. at least not yet on a living

human being.

 

> Thanks

 

Welcome you are and I wish you and your daughter well.

PS: John .. Oreganol is a product of North American Herb & Spice.

 

> I highly recommend oil of oregano - it can be put under your

tongue.
