Simply Honest Co. — Organic Oil of Oregano, Double-Infused · 2 oz

Double-infused Greek oregano in organic olive and MCT oil: a whole-herb oregano oil you can take by the spoon or use on skin.

Most oil of oregano on the shelf is a few drops of essential oil in a carrier. Simply Honest Co. does it the traditional way. Fresh Greek oregano (Origanum vulgare subsp. hirtum) is infused into organic extra virgin olive oil and MCT oil, strained, then infused a second time with fresh herb. The double infusion gives a richer, more concentrated oil that keeps the whole-plant profile of the herb, including its naturally occurring carvacrol and thymol, instead of an isolated essential oil. It is smooth, absorbs quickly and has none of the burn of straight essential oil.

Oregano has been a cornerstone of Mediterranean folk medicine for centuries, reached for during cold and flu season, for seasonal immune support and as a warming digestive herb. Greek oregano is the variety most prized for its strength.

Key ingredients

• Greek oregano (Origanum vulgare subsp. hirtum): the most aromatic oregano, traditionally used for seasonal immune support and digestion, and naturally rich in carvacrol and thymol.
• Organic extra virgin olive oil: the classic Mediterranean carrier, rich in polyphenols and gentle on the stomach.
• Organic fractionated coconut oil (MCT): a light, fast-absorbing oil that keeps the formula smooth and easy on skin.
• Mixed tocopherols (vitamin E): a natural antioxidant that keeps the oil fresh.

Benefits

• Traditional support for the immune system during cold and flu season
• A whole-herb infusion, not essential oil diluted in a carrier

Who this is for

• Anyone who keeps an herbal ally on hand for cold and flu season
