Let's say that your child has an infection... it doesn't matter what kind. (It could be an ear, bladder, kidney, skin, throat, sinus and it could be viral, bacterial, or fungal.) How about this time you do not rush them up to the doctor's office, where, let's be frank, they will most likely pick up another infection of a different breed.  How about this time, you don't even call your doctor at all for the first twenty four hours.

So, with that angstful purging out of my system, I deliver you Mother Nature's medicine bottle.


Oil of Oregano is a concentrated essential oil made from, you guessed it, oregano. That same herb you consume via your pasta sauces and your pizza is one of the most powerful antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, antiparasitic and antiseptics that exists on earth, including those made by the almighty pharmaceutical companies.
