Description

Origanum vulgare is a species of the Lamiaceae family found in the Mediterranean region. The subspecies Origanum vulgare ssp. Hirtum, also known as Greek oregano, is a plant native to the southern Balkan Peninsula and Turkey. The name oregano comes from the ancient Greek (origanon) and indicates the plant's preference for higher altitudes in Mediterranean climates. 

Its therapeutic use has been known since ancient times. In ancient Greece, it was used to treat colic symptoms and skin conditions. In the traditional medicine of many peoples, it is mainly used for bronchial disorders, as a digestive aid and antiseptic, and to treat colds, indigestion, and stomach disorders.

Ιs considered one of the most powerful essential oils due to its main component, carvacrol. It has been used for centuries in traditional medicine to strengthen the immune, gastrointestinal, and respiratory systems, as well as for its antiseptic properties.

Here we would like to make a distinction between essential oil and oregano oil, as they are two different products. The product commonly sold as oregano oil on the market is made from oregano infused in olive oil and has a much lower concentration of active ingredients. 

This is why oregano oil is much cheaper than oregano essential oil, which is more expensive because it is a concentrated product that contains all the beneficial properties of the plant. However, you can make a product similar to what is sold as oregano oil on the market by adding Alembicon's premium quality oregano essential oil to olive oil. 

Furthermore, if you are interested in purchasing a larger quantity of oregano essential oil, the wholesale price varies depending on the size of the order, so please contact us for more information.

At the stage of full bloom, in July, when dry conditions prevail, the above-ground part of the plant is harvested. The essential oil content in the leaves and flowers is at its maximum during this period. The essential oil is obtained by steam distillation.

At Alembicon, we grow exclusively organic oregano, and the price of our essential oil is extremely affordable, as it is a high-value product whose quality characteristics are controlled both by us and by scientific institutions. Furthermore, if you are interested in finding out the wholesale price of oregano (always for essential oil), please contact us and we will be happy to assist you.

Carvacrol, thymol, γ-terpinene, p-cymene, linalool

Warm, strong, pungent, herbaceous, spicy, camphoraceous

It has antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, mainly due to its main components, carvacrol and thymol. The combination of these with gamma-terpinene and p-cymene, as well as with the other components, gives the essential oil anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Its use is associated with gastrointestinal health, helps with physical pain (and headaches) and promotes good respiratory function. 

Systematic internal use acts as an adjunct to the body's defenses. Externally, its use is indicated for skin infections. Oregano essential oil is also considered a natural food preservative, inhibiting the growth of food-borne bacteria and the production of toxins.

Cooking Add 1–2 drops to 200 ml of olive oil to use in your recipes and/or replace dried oregano in meat dishes, red sauces, and soups. 

Oral use: Dissolve 1 drop in a cup of water or tea to boost the intestinal and immune systems. Ingestion should only be done after consulting a health professional.

Aromatherapy: Add 4–5 drops to an aromatherapy device to create a pleasant atmosphere.

Topical use Mix 1 drop with 10 drops of base oil and apply to painful areas.

Cleaning: Add 1–2 drops to a bottle of water (spray or vaporizer) to clean and disinfect surfaces.

At Alembicon, oregano essential oil (organically grown) is extremely competitively priced when you consider its high concentration of ingredients, properties, and purity.

Oregano essential oil is potent due to its high carvacrol content and should be used with caution. Do not exceed the recommended dosage.

It is not recommended for children under 12 years of age, or for use by pregnant or breastfeeding women.
