Homemade oregano oil offers several health benefits, thanks to the powerful compounds found in oregano. Here are the key benefits, explained simply but backed by science:
1. Fights Harmful Germs🦠
Oregano oil contains compounds like carvacrol and thymol, which have strong antibacterial and antifungal properties. These compounds can help fight off harmful bacteria, yeast, and fungi that cause infections.
2. Boosts the Immune System😷
The antioxidants in oregano oil, such as rosmarinic acid, protect your cells from damage caused by free radicals. This helps strengthen your immune system, making it easier to fight off colds, flu, and other illnesses.
3. Supports Digestive Health 🤍
Oregano oil may help kill bad bacteria in your gut, like Helicobacter pylori, which can cause stomach problems. It can also support a healthy balance of gut bacteria, improving digestion and reducing bloating.
4. Reduces Inflammation 🔥
The anti-inflammatory properties of oregano oil can help reduce swelling and discomfort in the body. This can be especially useful for issues like sore throats, muscle aches, or minor skin irritations.
5. Relieves Respiratory Issues🫁
Oregano oil can act as a natural decongestant and expectorant, helping to clear mucus and soothe symptoms of respiratory infections like coughs, colds, or sinusitis.
6. Promotes Skin Health 🧴
When diluted and applied topically, oregano oil can help treat skin infections, minor wounds, or acne due to its antimicrobial properties.
Why Make It at Home?
Homemade oregano oil ensures you get a pure, natural product without added chemicals or preservatives. Plus, it’s cost-effective and easy to customize with your choice of carrier oil.
💖Products I use:
I have oregano extract essential oils is that the same as what she is making?
Can I use coconut oil.
Slooooow down.
I make my own with a single origin, extra virgin Moroccan olive oil. I grow my own oregano and have steeped both dry and fresh oregano. In my experience, I believe the oil done with fresh oregano seems more potent.(It’s important to make sure the fresh oregano has no water…air dry and then chop it a bit to mascerate it.) Warm the oil and pour over the oregano in a jar as above. I’ve let mine steep as long as a month.
Great side benefit with using dried oregano is that once you strain it, use the solid oregano for cooking! I keep a jar of it in the kitchen!
