The Power of Oregano Oil — Nature’s Potent Defender
Oregano oil has been treasured since ancient Greece and Rome for its powerful healing properties — and today, modern research is finally catching up with tradition. In this episode of Chasing Eden: Rediscovering Your Body’s Divine Design, we dive deep into the history, science, and practical uses of this remarkable natural remedy.Rich in compounds like carvacrol and thymol, oregano oil demonstrates strong antimicrobial, antifungal, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. Studies show it can disrupt harmful bacteria, reduce inflammation, support digestion, and help fight yeast overgrowth and other microbial imbalances. Externally, diluted oregano oil is used for skin support, wound care, and respiratory health, thanks to its potent bioactive profile.The episode also highlights a recent viral science-fair project where a young student found that oregano oil outperformed amoxicillin in killing bacteria in a petri dish — an intriguing discovery that aligns with existing lab research, while reminding listeners that natural remedies should complement, not replace, medical care.Listeners learn how to choose a high-purity, third-party-tested oregano oil, what to look for in carvacrol percentages, how to use it safely internally and externally, and why essential oil vs. oil-of-oregano matters. The podcast closes with a devotional reminder: when we use the plants God created with wisdom and gratitude, we honor the body He designed and entrusted to us.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hello, and welcome to Chasing Eden Rediscovering your Body's divine Design.
2
00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:26.000
I'm your host, Carolyn Thompson, and today we're exploring one
3
00:00:26.039 --> 00:00:31.760
of nature's remarkable gifts, the oil of the herb Origanum vulgary.
4
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:36.359
We're commonly known to you as oregano. We're going to
5
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:41.119
dive into its ancient roots, its modern day research, and
6
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:47.479
practical ways you might incorporate it into your wellness journey, body, mind,
7
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:52.000
and spirit. As we seek to honor the body God
8
00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:55.799
has given us, we'll look at how oregana oil aligns
9
00:00:55.840 --> 00:01:02.560
with his design for health, restoration, and flourishing. In this episode,
10
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:07.560
we'll cover three major sections, the history and tradition of
11
00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:14.480
oregano and oregano oil, research and science, what the studies
12
00:01:14.519 --> 00:01:20.519
say about internal and external benefits, as well as practical application,
13
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:24.879
how to choose a quality product, how to use it,
14
00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:30.200
safety tips, and a brief newsworthy story. You may have
15
00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:35.000
already heard about a science Fair experiment involving oregano oil
16
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:39.680
and amoxicilin Thank you for joining me today. Now let's
17
00:01:39.719 --> 00:01:46.439
get started. Let's talk about the history and tradition of
18
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:52.359
oregano oil. So here's a little background Oregano is native
19
00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:58.239
to the Mediterranean region. The plant origanum vulgary has long
20
00:01:58.319 --> 00:02:03.560
been used in cooking, but also in traditional medicine. The
21
00:02:03.680 --> 00:02:08.960
name oregano comes from the Greek word Oros meaning mountain,
22
00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:15.919
plus ganos, meaning joy. Known as joy of the mountains.
23
00:02:17.199 --> 00:02:22.960
In ancient Greece and Rome, it was used for respiratory issues, wounds,
24
00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:28.800
and as an herb for vitality. Over the centuries, herbilists
25
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:34.919
used oil of oregano or extracts of oregano to support digestion,
26
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:41.039
skin health, infections, and more. The idea of using what
27
00:02:41.159 --> 00:02:45.360
God has placed in creation for healing and good stewardship
28
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:49.080
of our bodies is also found in the Bible, so
29
00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:53.759
caring for our bodies with god honoring practices is part
30
00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:58.599
of our design. The term oregano oil is used in
31
00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:04.599
two ways. Oil of oregano, which typically means a concentrated
32
00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:11.159
extract often found in capsule or drop form, designed for
33
00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:17.639
internal use orally. There is also a regano essential oil
34
00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:23.560
which can be extracted via steam distillation. This is much
35
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:30.080
more concentrated and intended for external aromatic use and not
36
00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:38.120
ingestion unless under professional supervision. It's also helpful to know
37
00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:44.199
this distinction because the usage and safety differ. So oregana
38
00:03:44.280 --> 00:03:48.560
oil has a long tradition, and for those of us
39
00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:53.439
who believe our bodies are God given and to be respected,
40
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:58.719
it offers a natural tool within the broader context of
41
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:27.600
holistic wealth. Now, let's turn to what the science says.
42
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:33.680
We'll split this into internal uses and external or topical
43
00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:37.600
uses and then talk about how strong the evidence is
44
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:43.720
and where the gaps remain. Now, as far as internal uses,
45
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:50.360
oregano has been found to be anti microbial, anti bacterial,
46
00:04:50.920 --> 00:04:57.120
and anti fungal. A twenty eighteen study found that oregano
47
00:04:57.240 --> 00:05:05.920
oil effectively inactive a variety of pathogenic bacteria and their biofilms,
48
00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:12.199
including antibiotic resistant strains. Now, in regard to biofilms, in
49
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:18.399
case you're not familiar with that term, a biofilm typically
50
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:25.480
is discussing or describing the protective barrier. It's like a
51
00:05:25.560 --> 00:05:29.759
layer of mucus that bacteria has around it, or parasites
52
00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:35.920
have around themselves to keep themselves protected from what you
53
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:38.600
take in, from the different things you bring into your body,
54
00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:42.920
so that they can survive. So the twenty eighteen study
55
00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:48.120
shows that the irregano oil actually helped to inactivate a
56
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:53.240
variety of the pathanogenic pathogenic bacteria and their biofilms. So
57
00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:58.160
this is an amazing finding. It's great. Actually. Now the
58
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:03.360
active compounds carbon crawl and thymol are key. They disrupt
59
00:06:03.439 --> 00:06:09.519
the microbial membranes. A review from twenty seventeen stated that
60
00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:15.040
essential oils of oregano are widely recognized for anti microbial,
61
00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:20.920
anti viral, and anti fungal properties. Now also note that
62
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:27.279
while there are promising lab in vitro results, human clinical
63
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:31.439
trials are much more limited. For example, one source says
64
00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:37.639
there's quote insufficient evidence to support unquote using a regana
65
00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:42.199
oil for a cold in humans. Now with that in mind,
66
00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:49.160
because they haven't really done the clinical trials, the actual
67
00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:52.279
or they have done them, but they're limited. Okay, they
68
00:06:52.279 --> 00:06:57.360
have limited clinical trials human clinical trials. There's not a
69
00:06:57.399 --> 00:07:01.600
lot of information for them to draw that conclusion off of,
70
00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:05.759
and that's why they say there's insufficient evidence. However, if
71
00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:08.040
you were to do a search on the benefits of
72
00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:13.079
a regano as far as colds are concerned, there's a
73
00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:16.079
whole group of people that you're going to find are
74
00:07:16.199 --> 00:07:22.160
going to really tout the effectiveness of this particular essential
75
00:07:22.199 --> 00:07:25.800
oil on colds, and I'm one of them. I have
76
00:07:26.079 --> 00:07:31.360
used it to missed in my humidifier as well as
77
00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:35.439
my essential oil. Mister, I cannot remember what you call
78
00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:39.439
those things, but you put essential oils and water in
79
00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:42.600
them when they missed that into the air for you.
80
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:47.439
And I have honestly felt so much better after using
81
00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:51.000
a regano oil when I've had a cold. So I'm
82
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:54.360
a big believer in it. Even though they do have
83
00:07:54.600 --> 00:07:58.959
limited human clinical trials, there are plenty of people out
84
00:07:58.959 --> 00:08:02.199
there from experience who will tell you that this is
85
00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:07.000
a really fantastic remedy when they have a cold. Now,
86
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:11.319
Oregano oil can also be used as an anti inflammatory
87
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:16.959
and an antioxidant. According to the Cleveden Lin Clinic, Oregano
88
00:08:17.279 --> 00:08:24.639
and its oil contains flavonoids and phenolics, including carbacral thymol
89
00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:30.839
and tannins, which give antioxidant activity and may reduce inflammation.
90
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:35.279
Now that's from the Cleveland Clinic if you wanted to
91
00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:39.320
look that up. I'm also going to be posting some
92
00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:43.919
of these links in my blog at Chasingaiden dot net
93
00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:47.960
for you to refer to. In the blog section. So
94
00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:52.519
if you look up the oregano oil, oregano essential oil,
95
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:57.360
or oregano benefits section of my blog, I'll make sure
96
00:08:57.399 --> 00:09:00.000
to post a picture for you to identify it easily.
97
00:09:00.639 --> 00:09:03.200
You can look up these studies as well for yourself,
98
00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:07.879
and I always recommend doing your own deep dive and
99
00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:11.320
not just taking somebody's word for it, but doing always
100
00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:16.039
doing your own research. So as far as the antioxidant
101
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:21.440
activity is, the Cleveland Clinic found that it helps neutralize
102
00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:25.679
free radicals that damage tissues and accelerate aging or disease.
103
00:09:27.039 --> 00:09:32.679
One five article in Pharmaceuticals found oregonal essential oil had
104
00:09:32.759 --> 00:09:41.480
strong antibacterial and anti biofilm activity and also antioxidative potential.
105
00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:48.039
So that's really really extraordinary. Honestly, anything that is anti
106
00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:52.200
biofilm you want to be a part of, especially with
107
00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:55.399
all of the different issues people are having right now
108
00:09:56.320 --> 00:10:00.480
with their health and the discovery and the aware that
109
00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:06.000
people are finally getting to know about parasites and the
110
00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:08.240
effect that they have on our health and how they're
111
00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:14.919
related to sickness and other diseases like cancer. As far
112
00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:19.879
as digestive and gut health support, oregano oil may stimulate
113
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:26.919
digestive juices, relax digestive tract muscles, being anti spasmodic, and
114
00:10:27.159 --> 00:10:32.159
thus support your digestion. According to the Cleveland Clinic, some
115
00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:38.440
alternative medicine sources suggest a regano oil is used in
116
00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:45.720
gut rebalancing protocols for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, such as
117
00:10:45.840 --> 00:10:51.480
se bow. If you've ever heard of sebo sibo, though
118
00:10:51.679 --> 00:10:57.759
formal large human trials are lacking now, SEBO is also
119
00:10:57.840 --> 00:11:00.200
one of those things that is starting to become well
120
00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:04.519
more well known because if you're not familiar with it, it,
121
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:09.120
as doctor Bergh has described and I'm phrasing here, if
122
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:11.679
you've eaten a big meal or something and you're not
123
00:11:11.759 --> 00:11:15.360
digesting it as good as you were hoping, you in
124
00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:18.559
your stomach suddenly making all these crazy loud noises and
125
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:22.440
you're thinking, what the heck is going on? My gut
126
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:25.440
is making the it's so noisy. You know, the room's quiet,
127
00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:27.679
but your gut is making so much noise it's embarrassing.
128
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:33.840
That is sebo, which is a bacteria that starts to
129
00:11:34.080 --> 00:11:39.080
overgrow in the stomach intestinal area because your body's not
130
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:44.440
breaking the food down properly. And also what a lot
131
00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:48.480
of people don't realize is it's protecting you because if
132
00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:50.679
you can't break it down, something has to come in
133
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:53.320
and help you break it down. You don't want that
134
00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:57.679
sitting around in your digestive tract. And that's a whole
135
00:11:57.679 --> 00:12:03.559
other podcast by the way, again where things like enzymes
136
00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:09.679
and like doctor Berg's gallbladder pills that he has, those
137
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:12.039
things help you as far as digestion. If you're having
138
00:12:12.039 --> 00:12:15.519
trouble digesting those there are certain things you can take
139
00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:19.639
to help you aid in digestion, and a regano oil
140
00:12:19.879 --> 00:12:25.879
is one of them. Other potential benefits now, this was
141
00:12:26.600 --> 00:12:33.279
done via animal model research, and this suggests potential cholesterol lowering,
142
00:12:34.000 --> 00:12:40.919
weight loss, and anti yeast candida benefits. For example, some
143
00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:45.679
rabbit studies suggest certain compounds in a regano oil may
144
00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:53.080
lower cholesterol, but to emphasize, many of these are preliminary
145
00:12:53.159 --> 00:12:59.440
and human clinical data is sparse. As far as external
146
00:12:59.679 --> 00:13:07.200
top and use, skin wound healing and anti microbial surfaces,
147
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:11.120
a reagano essential oil has been studied for its action
148
00:13:11.440 --> 00:13:17.440
against biofilms which we discussed earlier which impair wound healing,
149
00:13:18.279 --> 00:13:23.559
and for its anti microbial effects on skin relevant microbes.
150
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:29.600
Some wellness outlets list a reagano oil among oils good
151
00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:38.000
for skin thanks to its antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti inflammatory profile.
152
00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:45.600
In regard to aromatherapy and inhalation, as far as topical dilution,
153
00:13:47.120 --> 00:13:52.879
ingestion of essential oil undiluted is not recommended. Diluted a
154
00:13:53.000 --> 00:13:58.440
regano oil can be used topically after patch testing or
155
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:05.919
for aromatic for example, and respiratory traditions. Origano oil has
156
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:10.759
been inhaled or used in steam, but again be careful
157
00:14:10.840 --> 00:14:19.480
because dilution is key. In a news story involving a
158
00:14:19.759 --> 00:14:24.840
science fare project, a high school student by the name
159
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:28.919
of Spencer Shipman entered a science fair project and claimed
160
00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:35.519
that oregano oil outperformed the antibiotic A mocks acilin in
161
00:14:35.679 --> 00:14:43.279
killing bacteria. His research demonstrated that oregano oil produced larger
162
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:49.519
bacterial inhibition zones than the conventional antibiotic, aligning with emerging
163
00:14:49.679 --> 00:14:57.159
scientific interest and natural antimicrobial compounds as potential alternatives to
164
00:14:57.440 --> 00:15:04.399
traditional treatments. Young's Spencer Shipman's experiment sparks important questions about
165
00:15:04.559 --> 00:15:11.679
natural alternatives to pharmaceutical antibiotics. His findings aligned with numerous
166
00:15:12.120 --> 00:15:19.120
laboratory studies that showcase oregano oil's potent anti microbial properties.
167
00:15:19.919 --> 00:15:25.240
Professional research support this high schooler's results revealing oregano oil's
168
00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:32.039
ability to destroy harmful bacteria through multiple mechanisms. If you
169
00:15:32.200 --> 00:15:39.240
want to watch the news piece on this, you can
170
00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:42.200
find it on social media. If you type in Spenser
171
00:15:42.360 --> 00:15:46.360
Shipman science for a project oregano oil, it comes up
172
00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:50.720
pretty quickly and you can watch the little the news
173
00:15:51.480 --> 00:15:56.159
part about it, and it's pretty cool. So the story
174
00:15:56.200 --> 00:15:58.559
states he used a single drop of oregano oil and
175
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:03.919
achieved one hundred percent kill of the bacteria tested. Now, however,
176
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:07.480
important caveats exist. Keep in mind that this is a
177
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:12.360
single project, likely in vitro in a petri dish rather
178
00:16:12.440 --> 00:16:17.919
than a controlled human trial. Supplements are less regulated, purity
179
00:16:18.320 --> 00:16:23.840
standardization vary. In short, very promising. Yet this is not
180
00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:28.120
a magic bullet, so be sure to use remedy within
181
00:16:28.320 --> 00:17:01.879
wise boundaries. Here are few quotes from some well known
182
00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:05.759
and respected health professionals and podcasters, and one of them's
183
00:17:05.880 --> 00:17:09.599
kind of funny. Okay, Doctor Josh acts. He says a
184
00:17:09.759 --> 00:17:14.559
reagano oil is a powerful plant derived essential oil with
185
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:21.440
antibiotic like properties. Antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal. He also says
186
00:17:21.960 --> 00:17:28.880
this oil is the king of all antibiotic oils. Unquote.
187
00:17:29.079 --> 00:17:33.680
Doctor Barbara O'Neil says, quote oregano oil has been shown
188
00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:38.720
to be forty times more powerful than antibiotics in fighting
189
00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:45.559
bacterial infections for centuries unquote. She also says, quote a
190
00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:50.599
reagano oil is more superior than antibiotics and free of
191
00:17:50.680 --> 00:17:57.319
side effects. Unquote. Human biohacker Dave Asprey. He's an interesting guy,
192
00:17:57.400 --> 00:18:00.839
isn't he. He says this quote o regan for example,
193
00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:05.599
contains carvacrawl, which is a compound that may disrupt the
194
00:18:05.640 --> 00:18:12.119
fat gain process. He also says, I'm happy to eat
195
00:18:12.119 --> 00:18:15.160
a tablespoon of oregano a day, and the rest of
196
00:18:15.200 --> 00:18:17.599
the time I use it in my cooking. Now, this
197
00:18:17.759 --> 00:18:21.200
is wild. He says this if you're basically farting death,
198
00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:28.319
a regano oil to the rescue unquote. He's a funny guy. Now,
199
00:18:28.400 --> 00:18:32.519
some practical application in practices here, let's talk about how
200
00:18:32.519 --> 00:18:35.680
you might consider using a regano oil in a practical way.
201
00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:43.839
When buying oil of oregano or oregano extract. Look for
202
00:18:43.920 --> 00:18:49.200
the following you want standardization, look for a product standardized
203
00:18:49.440 --> 00:18:54.920
for carvacrawl. Okay, Now, carvercrawl is one of oregano oil's
204
00:18:54.960 --> 00:19:01.240
primary active compounds, attacking bacterial cell membranes directly. These compounds
205
00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:07.680
disrupt membrane integrity, causing bacterial cells to leak essential components
206
00:19:07.839 --> 00:19:12.640
and die. That's what we want. Laboratory studies demonstrate these
207
00:19:12.640 --> 00:19:18.720
effects occur at remarkably low concentrations, making a reganal oil
208
00:19:19.119 --> 00:19:26.599
an efficient natural antimicrobial agent. Research suggests higher carbocral correlates
209
00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:33.640
with stronger antimicrobial effect. Purity, you want third party testing.
210
00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:38.880
Since supplements are not tightly regulated, look for brands that
211
00:19:39.000 --> 00:19:43.680
provide third party lab testing for purity. You don't want
212
00:19:43.720 --> 00:19:47.839
any heavy metals or contaminants, so that third party lab
213
00:19:47.880 --> 00:19:53.279
testing for purity is really important. Now this one. You
214
00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:57.319
may have heard about carrier oils, which is a way
215
00:19:57.400 --> 00:20:01.039
of diluting your essential oil. And this is very important
216
00:20:01.119 --> 00:20:04.000
and not to be ignored because a lot of people
217
00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:09.039
don't realize that essential oils can actually burn you. If
218
00:20:09.039 --> 00:20:13.000
you're using an essential oil for external use, and sure
219
00:20:13.039 --> 00:20:18.079
it comes with a carrier oil or that you add one. Now,
220
00:20:18.200 --> 00:20:22.319
make sure that you look up on a reputable website
221
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:26.400
the way that you are to dilute the specific essential
222
00:20:26.440 --> 00:20:30.680
oil that you're using, and look at the percentage of
223
00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:34.039
the oil that you have and make sure that you
224
00:20:34.160 --> 00:20:39.640
do this accordingly. Now, if it's specifically labeled, do not
225
00:20:40.119 --> 00:20:45.200
ingest if it's meant for topical aromatic use, you'd want
226
00:20:45.240 --> 00:20:48.519
to use to dilute it with a carrier oil. And
227
00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:52.400
that's because essential oils are potent. They cause irritation and
228
00:20:52.559 --> 00:20:55.759
when they're applied directly to your skin. So a few
229
00:20:55.839 --> 00:20:59.000
carrier oils include and the one I usually use is
230
00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:02.079
coconut oil to be the easiest to go to, and
231
00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:05.799
most people already have coconut oil in their cabinets. But
232
00:21:05.880 --> 00:21:10.119
there's also hohoba oil, olive oil, and apricot kernel oil
233
00:21:10.400 --> 00:21:12.480
and as well as some other ones that you can
234
00:21:12.480 --> 00:21:17.160
look up. So, whenever possible, purchase organic cold press carrier
235
00:21:17.200 --> 00:21:21.640
oils from a manufacturer that you trust. And when diluting
236
00:21:21.640 --> 00:21:24.519
your essential oils with a carrier oil, it's important that
237
00:21:24.559 --> 00:21:29.839
you follow dilution guidelines. For instance, a three percent dilution
238
00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:33.079
is going to be twenty drops of essential oil for
239
00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:36.720
six teaspoons of carrier oil and keep in mind this
240
00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:40.480
changes with children. A one percent dilution is going to
241
00:21:40.480 --> 00:21:43.200
be three to six drops of essential oil per six
242
00:21:43.400 --> 00:21:49.200
teaspoons of carrier oil for children. Now, oregano oil's composition
