Enhanced Description
Organic Oregano (Majorana hortensis), also known as Sweet Marjoram or motherwort, is a highly versatile herb prized for its culinary uses (as oregano) and extensive medicinal properties. This 50g pack of dried oregano offers a potent source of natural goodness.
Digestive & Gastrointestinal Health
Oregano stimulates digestive secretions, promotes gut motility and bile flow, thereby improving digestion. It’s beneficial for relieving indigestion, bloating (meteorism), low stomach acidity, and conditions such as cholecystitis and biliary dyskinesia. It also possesses mild antispasmodic properties.
Respiratory Support
This herb acts as an expectorant, clearing respiratory passages and offering relief from coughs and congestion. It's traditionally used for bronchitis, whooping cough (pertussis), pharyngitis, and tonsillitis—both as a tea and via inhalation. For oral health, oregano tea rinses can help alleviate gingivitis, stomatitis, and periodontal disease.
Women's Health
Long revered as a "woman's herb," oregano helps regulate menstrual cycles, eases menstrual cramps, and supports lactation. It's also beneficial in managing menopausal symptoms and addressing delayed puberty in adolescent girls. Its gentle sedative properties can offer relief from stress and anxiety related to hormonal fluctuations.
Nervous System Support
Oregano possesses calming properties, easing nervous tension, headaches, and insomnia. A small sachet placed near your pillow can promote restful sleep.
Anti-inflammatory & Antimicrobial Properties
Oregano exhibits potent anti-inflammatory and antiseptic effects, both internally and externally. It can be used topically as compresses or in baths to soothe skin irritations such as eczema, rashes, and itchy dermatoses.
Rich Nutritional Profile
This herb is packed with essential nutrients, including proteins, fiber, phenolic and tannic compounds, antioxidants, and minerals like calcium, magnesium, sodium, phosphorus, and iodine. It’s particularly rich in Vitamin C, carotenoids, and B vitamins (B1, B2, PP) and Vitamin K.
Uses
This dried oregano can be used to make teas, tinctures, or incorporated into culinary dishes. For external applications, prepare infusions for compresses or add to bathwater.
