Research from the U.S. Department of Agriculture proves that Oregano (and other herbs) are higher in antioxidant levels than fruits, vegetables and our personal favorite, garlic. The November issue of the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry stated that “oregano had 3 to 20 times higher antioxidant activity than the other herbs studied.” It also mentioned that oregano has 42 x more antioxidant activity than the proverbial "apple a day", 30 x more than potatoes, which of course come loaded with starch and can raise your blood sugar, and 12 x more than oranges.

What does this mean to you personally? Antioxidants fight off charged up molecules known as "free radicals", which can cause chemical damage in the human body, such as disease and tumors, etc. Free radicals can lead to weakened or non-functioning immune systems and recurrent infections. Free radicals are also named in the cause of degenerative heart diseases and cancer. We produce free radicals as part of the everyday digestion of foods we eat, by smoking, by exposure to radiation (certain medical tests, too much sun, etc), by ingesting rancid oils (found in foods that have been fried and fast foods), additives (food coloring and dyes), chemicals (farming chemicals such as petroleum based fertilizers and pesticides), etc. Destroying all these excess free radicals can obviously improve one's health, if in the disease state already, or hopefully, if taken while still healthy as a preventative care measure.
What are the health benefits of oil of oregano? According to Dr. Wang, herbs such as organo (or oil of oregano) are an “easy way to get a concentrated source of antioxidants - without all the extra calories of whole foods.” This is great news for most Americans trying to watch their caloric intake and for diabetics, who have to watch both calories and types of food ingested for total sugar content.
North American Herb and Spice was first to introduce the world to oregano oil in the form of Oreganol P73 and Oregacyn P73, the most concentrated and effective source of antioxidants that actually kill bacteria, fungi and viruses!
