1.An Effective Anti-Bacterial
The volatile oils in this spice include thymol and carvacrol, both of which have been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria.A researcher in Mexico found oregano to be more effective against Giardia than the commonly used prescription drug.
2.Potent Anti-Oxidant Activity
Oregano leaf extract contains numerous phytonutrients-including thymol and rosmarinic acid that have also been
shown to function as potent antioxidants that can prevent oxygen based damage to cell structures throughout the body.
3.Promote digestion
