Guest guest Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Hi Karen, Which oregano oil are folks preferring to combat colds, sore throats and > such? > What its all about is killing bacteria .. and in the case of viruses .. assisting the immune system to become strong enough to force them to stop replicating .. to go back into their hidey hole. I'm not surprised that Christina is getting good results with Origanum vulgare .. but contrary to the faddish ads on many links now, its not the only effective Origanum. See below.

Origanum vulgare is the best seller though its not the only therapeutic Origanum. Maybe people think its the best because there is one company making some fairly sound health claims and selling it as " Oil of Oregano " in a 10% Oregano/90% Olive Oil mixture for as much as $39.95 per 2/3 ounce bottle. So people see mine (and that of many other sellers) as being less costly. With ours, one can mix their own and create a dozen bottles of the $39.95 product for less than half the price. And .. for a fact that company is NOT selling ONLY Origanum vulgare .. I know their supplier and they are producing as much Origanum dubium Carvacrol as they are anything else. Origanum onites has been the next best seller and that might be due to some things I've written on it and a portion of the lecture I gave at an AT Conference in Toronto, Canada in September 1999. I presented some research conducted by five prominent professors in Turkey using Origanum onites in a project involving lung tumors in rats, using three different groups and three treatments, one of them being normal cancer treatments. I presented the study, showed the audience colored micro slides of the lung tissues. The Origanum onites not only stopped the growth but also caused recession of the growths! The lung tissue was reverting to its previously normal pink and clear state!! I made it clear that this is not an indication that it will cure cancer in humans but it shows a great need for further research. Origanum dubium Carvacrol is the next best seller, possibly because it appears to have a milder odor than the others. Contrary to the many marketing claims being made by certain fad sales companies .. the Origanum onites and Origanum dubium Carvacrol have the exact same therapeutic properties as does Origanum vulgare. In fact, they are not all selling Origanum vulgare anyway .. the world supply is not sufficient to supply all those who make such claims. To take it a bit further .. I have supplied companies who make claims of selling only Origanum vulgare .. but that is NOT all they purchased from me. Origanum dubium (Linalool type) is in its own class .. a very nice odor and dual therapeutic value. It's high in linalool, as is lavender, and high in carvacrol, as is oregano. It has healing properties of oregano and lavender ... so much so that the common name in Turkey is Lavanta Kekik (Lavender Oregano.) It's endemic to Turkey - not found elsewhere and even here it's only found in a very small corner of the Southeast. When people get samples of it from us, they buy it. I normally use it for inhalation and it is great for diffusion - I love the odor. I prefer either Origanum vulgare, Origanum onites or Origanum dubium Carvacrol for kicking Big Bad Bug Butts (cold, flu, sinuses) but I do not make recommendations to others on ingestion of essential oils. I recommend buyers consult their doctor prior to this manner of usage. Merely sniffing the oil is sufficient to do the job. For diffusion any one will do the job but just for inhalation, I'd go with the Origanum dubium (Linalool type) because I love the odor. All have proven antiseptic, antimicrobial, antifungal, anti-spasmodic properties and they are believed to be capable of stimulating the immune system .. which .. assists the body to overcome viral infections, which puts the virus in retrograde .. stops its reproduction so it goes back into defilade position. So - one can choose based on the above descriptions of each oil. Y'all have a good one .. and keep smiling. :-) Butch .. http://www.AV-AT.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 I notice that on YL website they say that their oregano is Oregano (Origanum compactum)The chemo-type of Young Living's Oregano is Carvacrol. Oregano has an approximate ORAC of 153,007 (TE/L). TE/L is expressed as micromole Trolox equivalent per liter. - what the heck does that mean? thanks :-) Pam , " Butch Owen " <butchowen wrote: > > Hi Karen, > > Which oregano oil are folks preferring to combat colds, sore throats and > > such? > > > > What its all about is killing bacteria .. and in the case of viruses .. > assisting the immune system to become strong enough to force them to stop > replicating .. to go back into their hidey hole. > > I'm not surprised that Christina is getting good results with Origanum > vulgare .. but contrary to the faddish ads on many links now, its not the > only effective Origanum.
