When family members are sick, we are highly motivated to find a way to help them recover. Since the body does the healing, we can only provide the health-giving tools that speed the process along. Almost 40 years ago two of my closest family members were direly ill at the same time. I made discoveries that caused me to start manufacturing 100% pure and natural products to help keep bodies strong and healthy. It became my focus in life and the North American Herb and Spice motto “to heal the world” became my objective.
Almost 40 years ago the most useful single herb that I used during a dire health crisis with two extremely ill loved ones was wild Oregano. Nothing was helping them. Then I remembered years before I had visited Turkey and found tiny vials of homemade oregano oil in the souks or marketplace. It was extremely strong, and my husband and I had no idea how it could be used. Even the Turkish people were not able to advise us. They commonly used the oregano juice or hydrosol for better health, but rarely the oil. They explained that the Aktars or natural healers always advised them to use the oregano juice or hydrosol, which has different properties than the oil.
We made friends in Turkey, and I contacted Jim to try and send me some of this powerful oregano oil. He went into the high mountains and found a very special source. He sent 8 liters of this special oregano oil to the United States. That is when the wild Oregano Oil adventure began. The details are long and arduous, but this event was the catalyst of how my powerful edible food-grade oregano was introduced in the United States and still thrives today.
There are over 80 species of Oregano! A few of them are more beneficial than others. My P73 oregano oil is distilled from the high altitude mountain-grown wild oregano herb, stems, leaves, and flowers, and triple-tested for purity and efficacy. Today in Turkey and elsewhere most of the herb is farm-grown and cultivated with machinery. I only use the handpicked wild plants, because the oil is far more powerful than cultivated. Wild plants must fight for survival in nature, and always prove to be much more beneficial. I spent weeks studying these wild plants and worked with Eskisehir University and their gas chromatography to verify the best of the best oregano species and oil. No other company owner can make this claim. I always search for the highest and best quality for all supplements and products.
Now, the following is important information that you can use in your daily lives and will be a blessing that you can depend on and pass on to friends and family.
- Always use a dependable food source of oregano oil. I tested and found that most people can use the regular strength P73 that is combined with Extra Virgin Olive oil. The EVO has many beneficial components such as vitamin E, oleic acid, palmitic acid, and linoleic acid, beneficial polyphenols and more. This allows the oil to be be applied topically and taken internally. The P73 may be used daily unlike other brands that limit the use of their oils. Super Strength P73 is for tough times and also can be used daily both topically and internally. I personally have used 6 to 8 SuperStrength gel caps twice daily for over 40 years to stay strong and healthy.
- For soothing care massage the oil on the spine, chest, bottoms of the feet, and back of the neck. P73 may be applied to babies with care to avoid the diaper line. Then cover the contact areas to avoid the oil spreading to unwanted areas. Never get near eyes.
- P73 can also be rubbed behind the ears and also applied to sunburns and minor burns and cuts for instant relief.*
- Brush teeth and pad gums with cotton and oregano oil. It helps with breath and maintaining a healthy mouth.*
- Rub onto the scalp to keep the skin healthy and free of dandruff.*
- Smell the oil and breathe deeply for stuffy relief. SinuOrega is always dependable for sinus aid.
- Orega Biotic is a gentle support for intestines and bowels.*
- Oreganol P73 Juice or hydrosol helps to oxygenate all cells and keep them healthy. Daily use is desirable for best results.*
- Freshen water with a couple of drops of oregano oil. Also, use this as a mouth freshener and soothing for cough. Or swish a mouthful of oregano juice and then swallow. It works all the way down.
These are just a few ways to use oregano in your daily life. Wild oregano with the appropriate amount of carvacrol can become your best friend with household uses and healthy support for the family. Don’t be without it. Every medicine chest, kitchen, automobile, and more should have a bottle ready and waiting for your next special need. I’m never without it!
