It is highly concentrated and should typically be diluted before consumption, often mixed with a carrier oil or taken in capsule form to prevent irritation to the digestive tract. Always consult with a healthcare professional before using oregano oil as a supplement, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.

I have used essential oils professionally for more than 20 years for products at vivantnatural.com.

If oregano oil kills good bacteria as well as bad is it better to take probiotics when finished with the oil or at a different time while on the oil?
It is a false assumption that Oregano oil kills good bacteria. Oregano oil does kill pathogens but it feeds beneficial bacteria.Try this simple experiment to confirm for yourself the amazing intelligence of Oregano oil to discern between harmful and beneficial micro organisms.While making yogurt at home, place ten drops, (that's a lot of oregano oil!), into an eight ounce cup of milk and yogurt cultures while making up the rest of your yogurt batch as usual.If oregano oil kills all organisms, including the beneficial ones, then the yogurt cultures will die and the milk will just be milk but if the oregano oil is discerning, then the cultures will thrive and you will have oregano flavored yogurt.Not only are you going to enjoy a delicious savory yogurt but that oregano oil infused yogurt is going to far outlast the other yogurt batch because the oregano oil is going to continue to feed and preserve the good yogurt cultures while destroying any pathogens that would typically spoil the yogurt. I left my oregano oil infused yogurt in the fridge for month and it was as tasty after one month as it was the day I made it.
Is it dangerous to ingest aromatherapy oregano oil?
Many of these oils are mixed with petroleum, so don't. If it were pure, then it would not harm you; but it is very likely that it is mixed down to around 4-7% of the actual oil that you want. (Another answer - former vitamin dept. manager) - Essential oils used in aromatherapy are NOT appropriate for ingestion. What you're looking for is food-grade (capsule or liquid) oregano oil. The most popular vitamin (internal) one that I carried was called Oreganol (liquid) and OregaMax (capsule), made by North American Herb and Spice. Those are commonly used by folks who are looking for the immune system-supporting effects of oregano oil. Some essential oils in pure form are ok to ingest, but in very small amounts and diluted with alcohol or water, and always under supervision of certified health care practitioner.
