Oregano essential oil is famous for its strong antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties. Thanks to its high carvacrol and thymol content, it is considered a natural antibiotic. When used in aromatherapy and inhalations, it has an anti-inflammatory and healing effect on respiratory infections and digestive problems. It is also effective in relieving the symptoms of colds, coughs and sore throats.
In the cosmetic industry, oregano oil works well as a cleanser and antiseptic in cosmetics for the treatment of acne, inflammation and even skin fungus.
Due to its high concentration of active ingredients, oregano oil should be used diluted. It can be added to base oils in skin care or used for inhalation and diffusion to support the respiratory system.
