Fresh Oregano Tea & Water

Oregano should always demand respect. When oregano enters our intestinal tract, the toxic bugs and pathogens that reside inside the human body quickly learn to have respect for almighty oregano. It is an herb of many uses. Whether you choose oregano tea or oregano water, it will be a healing tool that’s always at your fingertips if you grow the herb at home. When you bring oregano into your life, your body will thank you for its combination of anti-pathogenic compounds geared to killing bacteria, which can really help someone struggling with chronic illness.

When unproductive bacteria is present in the gut, it tends to run and hide in hard-to-reach places. This bad bacteria seeks out small pockets inside the small intestinal tract and colon, pockets of hardened fecal matter, so the bacteria can burrow behind it and hide. Consuming just a small handful of oregano on a regular basis can make it so the oregano works itself into these deep, hidden pockets inside the small intestinal tract and colon and kills off the bacteria.
