There are different qualities of oregano oil subject to the type of growing, organic, metal contents of distiller, etc. If one is dealing with an International standard there are specific benchmarks of chemical constituents required. If the oil has been distilled with chemicals, one will have a 'reaction' - possibly like a chemical burn. One has have a degree of reliability regarding the source. English and French protocols are different, and justifiably so. Other countries have other standards. My point is to not condemn oregano unless one is more specific about the quality they have utilised. A healing oregano should have 25% Monoterpenes including a and b pinenes, mycrene; Monoterpene phenols (60-72%); and other chemical constituents. Christine....

We are trying to see how well oil of oregano works. Used oregano on my 40 year old sons feet full of toe nail fungus. He had an allergic reaction to the oregano and missed several weeks work with raw and cracked skin. Go slow on using oregano. I add it to my foot baths with Epsom salt 1 1/2 cup + cup vinegar. It does not bother me. My 5th day on Buteyko breathing exercises. I stopped using both my steroid inhalers yesterday. My dwell time before needing another breath is less than 10 seconds. Still using Walgreens personal humidifier, nebulizer, with CS,DMSO, Xylitol, GSE and still getting a little mucus and fungus out. I debated spending $35 for Buteyko then realized I am spending $80 every 3 months after insurance for steroid inhalers. I can't keep tape over mouth more than several hours at night, new tape does not work. I awake and feel like it is suffocating me and tear off the tape. Brickey
