Uses of Oil of Oregano
Skin Infections
Oil of Oregano can be applied directly onto the skin to treat itches, skin infections, and irritated gums, but only if it has been diluted.

Digestive Problems
The high concentrations of thymol and carvacrol in Oil of Oregano have been shown to calm upset stomachs and aid digestion. Therefore, a quick home remedy for mild indigestion is to drink a glass of milk or juice that is mixed with 2 or 3 drops of the oil.

Colds and Sore Throats

Repeat this once per day for up to 5 days until the symptoms are gone.
What are the Side Effects of Oil of Oregano?
While Oil of Oregano has many benefits, there are a few possible side effects:

Pregnant women should also avoid this oil since it can stimulate blood flow in the uterus, which can weaken the lining that surrounds the fetus in the womb.
