Oregamax from North American Herb & Spice contains a unique species and grade of oregano imported from virgin territories. In its place of origin, the Mediterranean, oregano is not merely and herb; it is used primarily as a food. In the Middle East, villagers collect wild oregano from the mountain slopes. They dry it and crush the entire plant, including the uncountable oil rich seeds, into a powder. They prepare a dish of flat bread covered with a thick layer of oregano plus olive oil an eat it every day, when it is available. Not merely a pizza and spaghetti spice, oregano is used in the Mediterranean to cure disease. For centuries the people of the Mediterranean ameliorated digestive disturbances, constipation, diarrhea, parasitic infections, cough, headaches, menstrual irregularities and bacterial and viral infections with oregano.
Modern herbalists use oregano for chronic infections, asthma, cough, bronchial congestion and joint pain. they recommend it as a general stimulant for improving energy, vitality and digestion. A favored prescription is for the elimination of intestinal gas.
Oregano is perhaps the most powerful herbal anti fungal agent known. Its effectiveness is enhanced by its safety, since it is entirely non-toxic. This is of crucial important with disseminated fungal infections, such as Candidiasis, since large doses may be necessary to establish a cure. Furthermore, fungal resistance to oregano is exceptionally rare. Oregano is such a potent anti fungal agent that it is capable of destroying even resistant fungal forms such as the mutated fungi which result from antibiotic therapy.
Oregano is also an excellent antibacterial agent. Its volatile oils are highly active against the majority of pathogenic bacteria, including staph, strep, and E. coli. In addition to containing essential oils, oregano is a rich source of a variety of vitamins and minerals, and is especially rich in vitamin C. It contains large amounts of chlorophyll, itself a natural antiseptic.
Oregamax contains a special grade of wild oregano, gather from the mountain slopes and wild fields of Mediterranean nations. Being wild, it is grown absolutely chemical-free. The oregano is sun dried and then encapsulated without additive and/or carriers. Oregamax is fortified with Thus cararia, onion extract and garlic. Thus cararia, or Mountain Sumac, is entirely unrelated to the commonly known poison sumac. Instead, it is a relative of America's Staghorn Sumac, a non-toxic herb frequently used by Native Americans.
Mountain Sumac is a more potent species than the Native American type in terms of curative powers. It is a rich source of tannic acid, a potent anti-fungal agent. It is perhaps the greatest source of malic and gallic acids in the vegetable kingdom. These organic acids possess significant anti-viral, antibacterial and anti-fungal activity. Malic acid has recently een shown to aid in the treatment of fibromyalgia.
Garlic and onion extracts help improve blood flow through their natural blood thinning action. They also aid in the digestion of fat and prevent fat accumulation in the liver and bloodstream. They also help block adipose tissue formation.
Garlic and onion are natural antiseptics and are active against bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. The anti-microbial action of gallic and onion are potentiated when they are consumed at the same time.
Garlic and onion also provide much needed sulfur compounds. This "organic" sulfur is utilized within the liver, pancreas and immune system for the synthesis of a wide range of critical proteins, including glutathione, immunoglobulins, digestive enzymes and insulin. Organic sulfur is also heavily used in the regeneration of skin cells. It is also needed for the formation of cells lining the internal surfaces of various organs, including the walls of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, bronchial tubes, as well as the linings in various secretory organs such as the pancreas, liver and endocrine glands. These linings, known as the surface epithelium, degenerate in the event of a deficiency of sulfur-bearing proteins.
