What is oregano oil?
Oregano oil is an extract made from the leaves of the oregano plant.
The oil contains concentrated active compounds, mainly carvacrol and thymol, which give oregano oil its characteristic smell and properties.
Oregano oil is usually produced by steam distillation and is available in softgels (capsules).
How does oregano oil work?

In the digestive tract, oregano oil can help support a healthy balance of micro-organisms and helps maintain normal bowel function.
