About

Native to Mediterranean Europe and Western Asia, oregano is a compact flowering shrub in the mint family. Also known as wild marjoram, it was traditionally used as a culinary herb, adding a deeply herbaceous flavor and aroma to dishes. Oregano essential oil contains the powerful constituent carvacrol, which provides much of its characteristic aroma and contributes to the warming sensation this oil creates when applied topically to the skin. Due to the skin-warming sensation, Oregano essential oil must be diluted to apply to the skin. Oregano Vitality™ adds a delicious, savory flavor to your favorite culinary dishes. It may also provide immune and digestive support when taken as a dietary supplement.* Oregano and Oregano Vitality are the same essential oil.

    Directions

    Topical: Dilute 1 drop with 4 drops of V-6™ or olive oil. Test on a small area of skin on the underside of the arm and apply to desired area as needed. Aromatic: Diffuse up to 10 minutes 3 times daily.
