What the AI looks for in Oregano Herbal Supplements
- Species
- Look for Origanum vulgare or another true oregano species. Thymus capitatus (Spanish 'oregano') or thyme oil is a different product. Substitution is common and changes the chemistry.
- Carvacrol content
- Carvacrol should be the dominant phenol, and the label should state it. Carvacrol drives oregano oil's activity, and products high in thymol are a different oil.
- Dilution
- Use oil already diluted in a carrier oil. Never take undiluted essential oil orally. Undiluted oregano oil irritates the mouth, throat and gut.
Brands that matter
- North American Herb & Spice: Oreganol line.
- Gaia Herbs: Encapsulated oregano oil.
- Joy of the Mountains: Wild oregano oil.
What to avoid
- Undiluted oregano essential oil from aromatherapy ranges
- Labels without species or carvacrol information
