Dr. Oz and Oregano Oil: What You Really Need to Know Before You Follow His Lead
Dr. Oz has a little problem. He talks as if he is an authority on a topic that he clearly has no real understanding: The Essential Oil of Oregano. On the DoctorOz Show today, Dr. Oz managed to provide harmful information to his audience. He doesn’t know how to use Oregano Essential Oils! He’s such a novice…
Watch Dr. Oz Show You the Wrong Way to Use the Essential Oil of Oregano
Please do NOT take a drop of Oregano Oil out of the bottle and place it in your mouth! It is caustic, just like Tea Tree Oil. It is too ‘hot’ to place on any sensitive membrane of your body like your tongue without dilution with a carrier oil. No properly-trained massage therapist or aromatherapist would ever have you place a drop of this oil directly in your mouth without first diluting it with carrier oil and learning the proper applications of Oregano Essential Oils.
It is useful for pathogens, but you use this Oil sparingly on the soles of your feet or your wrist. Do not allow this Oil to touch your mouth, nasal passages, eyes, or genitalia. It can irritate sensitive tissue. It is fine when it is blended with carrier oils or other Essential Oils that make it more functional for applications to the skin, hair, and nail beds. You can get high quality carrier oils from your local massage therapists or professional aromatherapists online. I can refer you to those resources that I use for this purpose.
Dr. Oz is not informed about Oil of Oregano. He does give his audience a reasonable method for using this potent oil in coconut oil and olive oil. However, when he had his audience member put a drop in a lukewarm bowl of water and place a small towel over her head, he was out standing in left field. In other words, he needed someone on his staff to work with a qualified aromatherapist and teach him how to get the right size of material to cover the entire head, use a very hot and steaming bowl of purified water, and use a blend of Essential Oils, instead of straight Oil of Oregano. In fact, it is preferable to purchase a diffuser and use a proper piece of aromatherapy equipment to diffuse the oils into the air in your house or office and even your child’s school environment or daycare. The use of a diffuser is vastly superior to the towel and bowl method that he demonstrated ineffectively on his show!
I hope you are beginning to get the idea that you need to know more before you use the Essential Oil of Oregano. Just ask me and I’ll provide professional information for you on this valuable topic!
