Description
How to use Oregano oil topically: Mix 3 drops of undiluted oregano oil with a small amount of a carrier oil (kukui nut oil or coconut oil) then apply topically by rubbing into the skin over the affected area. This helps to reduce the risk for irritation and adverse reactions.
You can ingest oregano essential oil in very small quantities: Add 3 drops of oregano oil to a capsule or to the food or beverage of your choice along with a carrier oil; take it twice daily for up to 10 days. Speak to a professional who can recommend the best method!
