Origanum Vulgare Oil

Origanum Vulgare Oil

Origanum Vulgare Oil is extracted from the fragrant, common household herb of oregano, native to Europe and now grown around the world.  Also known as Oregano Oil, this product contains the antibacterial agent carvacrol, which works to curb the growth of bacteria in the oral cavity.  Also abundant in this oil is the antifungal thymol; aiding in drawing toxins from the mouth, thymol makes Oregano Oil a best oil for pulling.  This oil also has anti-inflammatory properties that can help soothe inflamed teeth and gums, while its herby taste makes it a refreshing additive to oral healthcare products.
