Wise Women's thoughts on using Oregano Oil
Posted: Wed Jan 14, 2015 1:18 pm
It's nice to be back on this forum!!
My topic is using Oregano oil internally for encouraging unfriendly microbes to exit the GI tract. Normally I wouldn't use Essential Oils (EO) internally as I see them as highly concentrated and almost in the same category as pharmaceuticals. Meaning while they have a specific desired effect, they also can cause damage.
After several years of using only healing approaches from the first 4 Rivers (do-nothing, researching, energy work, diet and nourishing herbs) to heal my gut, I have had some progress but still feel really restricted on what I can eat due to digestive problems. After much research I'm considering that I may have an overgrowth of microbes that are not healthy (ie pathogenic,SIBO, Candida etc) . So the treatments I've come across are either pharmaceutical or botanical. Of course I'd rather use plants. One of the botanicals on this one program I'm about to do is oregano oil taken internally.
I'm interested in hearing from other Wise Women who have experience using oregano oil internally. How was it, Why did you use it, were there side affects? Anything you learned from using it? Stuff like that.
Thanks
