Did you know Oregano has Natural Health Benefits? Oregano can be used in more than just Italian dishes and here are some health benefits you could be enjoying today just by adding this spice into your life!

Health Benefits

  • Antibacterial Agent – Oregano has clear antibacterial properties which is due to the presence of thymol and carvacrol. These important organic compounds can defend the body against a wide range of bacteria.
  • Anti-inflammatory Properties – Oregano contains beta-caryophyllene (E-BCP). This is a substance that inhibits inflammation. It may also be beneficial for conditions including osteoporosis and arteriosclerosis, as well as metabolic syndrome.
  • Digestive Health Benefits – Oregano is packed with fiber. It is said to help relieve indigestion, heartburn, and lower stomach acidity.

How to use Oregano:

  • Eating pizza? Sprinkle it with some fresh oregano.
  • Dried oregano, additional herbs, and water can create a soothing facial steam. This helps to loosen congestion and helps calm a cough, as well as improving the appearance of your skin.
  • Sprinkle some oregano in your scrambled eggs.
