Description
Oregano Leaf, also known as Wild Marjoram, Mountain Mint, Spanish Thyme, and Origanum, is an aromatic Mediterranean herb with a long history as a food additive and a as a medicinal plant. Oregano is a member of the Labiatae family, which includes Sage, Marjoram, Thyme, Hyssop, Basil, and Lavender. Oregano is most associated with pizza and other Italian cuisine. Oregano Leaf has also been used in Greek cooking for centuries. It has been used medicinally for at least as long as it has been used in cooking.
The Ancient Greeks used Oregano Leaf to treat dropsy, convulsions, poisoning, coughs, asthma, indigestion, and headache. Oregano was also used to prevent seasickness, to relieve swelling, and as a hair restorative. Oregano Leaf is still used as an expectorant and as a digestive aid. Oregano Leaf may also help to rid the intestines of parasitic worms. It has also been used in the treatment of menstrual problems.
Recent research has focused on Oregano Leaf's promise as an antioxidant, antifungal, and antibacterial. Oregano Leaf also contains gallic acid, carvacrol, and tannic acid, which aids in healing and has astringent properties.
