This article was sent to me by a supplier rep from a company that markets another brand of oregano oil products. The two oregano products used in the study are Oreganol P73 Extra Strength and Oregacyn both by North American Herb and Spice (NAHS). I have three NAHS oregano products in stock - OregaMax 90 caps, Oreganol Super Strength P73 120 caps; and Oreganol P73 Super Strength drops.
Here is the link to the second study mentioned. It doesn't name the brands of oregano oil. It also says that the oregano oil was not as effective as an Echinacea purpurea extract and that the cytotoxic properties of carvacrol (the active ingredient in oil of oregano) limits its usefulness. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/233807904_Anti-Influenza_Virus_Activities_of_Commercial_Oregano_oils_and_their_Carriers
ReplyDeleteHere is the final report of the 2003 study with the P73 Oregano on a strain of coronavirus. At certain dilutions the oregano formula was effective in killing the virus without cytotoxic effects.
