Oregano

If essential oils could be superheroes, Oregano would have a suit and cape.

Oregano is commonly used in soups and pizza sauce, and you’re probably familiar with its savory smell. But did you know it’s one of the most powerful medicinal essential oils?

It’s antifungal, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory, and it’s proven to help fight candida. It’s used to combat bacterial overgrowth, athlete’s foot, and viruses. There’s even evidence that it can fight parasites.

Next time you feel like you have no choice but to take an antibiotic and wipe out your gut’s friendly bacteria, consider trying Oregano essential oil first.
