Hello friends, today I want to talk to you about the properties of oregano, which many of us know as a leaf that offers flavor and aroma to stews, and in the preparation of Italian dishes. But it is also a plant with medicinal properties.
Oregano is an aromatic plant belonging to the Lamiaceae family, with a herbaceous or subshrub character. Some 50 species belong to the genus that originate mainly in the Mediterranean area.
Oregano contains phenols, vitamins and mineral salts, such as iron, potassium, calcium and manganese, so it can often be used as a natural supplement, thanks also to the simplicity of growing even in the garden or in pots. Oregano has an erect stem, with a maximum height of about 80 cm, with many branches at the top.
Oregano has many properties that can be used in an absolutely natural way by taking herbal teas or herbal teas. Oregano can be used as a natural antibiotic to alleviate the symptoms of respiratory diseases by exploiting the anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, and antispasmodic properties.
Oregano leaves could be used to make infusions, in case of cold to decongest the respiratory tract. It is possible to use oregano as a remedy for intestinal parasites, or by taking advantage of the amount of vitamin C it contains, it could be used as an antioxidant. Oregano is also known as a pain reliever. Course
