4. Treats Yeast Infections
A type of fungus that can grow both on and inside humans, yeast can be harmless if kept in check. When it is allowed to grow beyond control though, this overgrowth can have gut-wrenching effects, literally. Infections can break out and people may be more susceptible to problems such as thrush.
Candida is by far the most well-known yeast and the most common cause of yeast infections too. So what can the apparently great oregano oil do for this problem? Well, quite a lot as it happens.
Some studies have proven oregano essential oil to be highly effective in fighting against up to five different types of this fungal infection, including those which cause some of the worst infections, mainly affecting the mouth or the vagina. Rather impressively, oregano essential oil was found to be far more effective at this than any of the other essential oils which were tested. It’s just the best tool for the job.
