MANY, many years before it was known as a pizza garnish, oregano was being used medicinally, as a natural anti-fungal, anti-viral and anti-biotic. But this versatile natural compound has even more uses, that you may not have considered yet. You can use our oregano oil….
On your salad
Oregano oil blended with apple cider vinegar and extra virgin olive oil, with a pinch of sea salt, makes for a piquant, antioxidant-rich, healthful — and immune boosting — salad dressing. Perfect, and delicious, drizzled over feta cheese, cherry tomatoes and rocket.
As an antioxidant
Bored of broccoli? Ready to kick kale to the curb? Green vegetables are not the only antioxidant-rich foods. Oregano and oil of oregano are packed with antioxidants and a study by the U.S Department of Agriculture reveals that oregano has more than 42 times the antioxidant activity of apples. Like spinach, kale and other leafy greens, oregano is loaded with antioxidants.
In your dog’s food
Show your beloved family pet some love by mixing a couple of drops of Zane Hellas oregano oil into his or her food. Medical studies have shown that oregano oil is capable of aiding conditions like candida, salmonella and E.coli in your pet. It may even guard against canine parasites. And that’s not all, you can even add a drop to your dog’s toothpaste to promote good oral health and fresh breath.
To raise your vibration
Pure oregano oil, like Zane Hellas’s 100% pure oil of oregano, is an essential oil. The term “essential oil” stems from “quintessential oil” – meaning the life force or essence of a particular flower, seed, root or leaf. Each oil has its own specific physical, emotional and spiritual properties. Lavender is well known for soothing the nerves. Peppermint is used as a refreshing stimulant. Oregano essential oil is said to have many therapeutic uses, including guarding against negative energies and lifting your energetic and spiritual vibration.
