Double-Dose of Oregano Oil! ** Part II

[Guest guest]

Hey y'all,

 

I should have gone into a bit more detail on my reply below because

facts without reasons are often forgotten .. methinks that's one of the

biggest problems in most high school courses .. facts in a vaccum.

I can't make the above statement for all EO .. but I can for Oregano

because its not easily oxidized.

 

And another bit of trivia .. sometimes on soap or cosmetics lists we see

someone talking about their natural preservatives .. then someone with

more experience comes along and tells them there is no such thing as a

natural preservative. Well .. the experienced person is right .. sorta.

Within the framework of the discussion .. which is cosmetics in most

cases, they are right. But there are some natural preservatives - they

are just not SAFE or compatible for use in cosmetics. Oregano is one of

those .. a powerful preservative. Though this is trivia its also a part

of the logic needed to really understand EO. Once we understand what

they can and can't do we can dispense with laundry lists. But Oregano

is not an acceptable natural preservative because it isn't a compatible

ingredient in cosmetics, so we can fall back on that statement that for

cosmetics .. there are no natural preservatives. ;-p
