Ingredients
Oregano Leaves (Dried or fresh)
Olive oil (I prefer extra virgin)
Instructions
Place oregano leaves in mason jar. If using fresh picked oregano make sure they are completely dry. You do not want any water going into your oil when preparing.
Pour olive oil into mason jar so that the oregano is completely submerged. Submerge the oregano completely with olive oil in a mason jar. Cover tightly with jar lid.
Place mason jar in a dark cabinet for 2-3 weeks (or longer) so that it will infuse. Shake the jar occasionally while stored in the cabinet.
After it has infused for 2-3 weeks, strain the contents with a cheesecloth or strainer into a dark dropper bottle. You can use a funnel to distribute the oil into the dropper bottle.
Enjoy the results of your oregano oil and use this “miracle remedy” appropriately.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN. AVOID CONTACT WITH THE EYES. DO not use it longer than 6 weeks internally because it affects the liver when used for extended periods. You can use it topically because it will bypass the liver. If you use Oregano Essential Oil; start using a couple of drops redness and heat sensation is normal.
