Oil of Oregano for Sinus Infections
C. Etris (Cincinnati, Ohio)
I have heard many times over the years about taking oil of oregano to clear up sinus infections. I get infections every year because of constant sinusitis and allergies. I also have a bad immune system. When I woke up one day and had a sinus infection getting worse as the day went on, I then decided to try oil of oregano capsules sold at the local nutrition store. The capsules were 60 mg. I found out how much to take on average for a sinus infection. So, I took seven pills a day for three days and my infection was gone. I always take vitamin C and zinc but that did not stop the infection. The oil of oregano capsules did the job. Some people take up to 600 mg. in a day for infections but I did not need to.

I find Oil of Oregano is a great natural cure for chest colds. At the first sign of a cold I take a couple capsules of Oil of Oregano every day. I found it shortens the duration and intensity of the cold.
Reply: Chronic Sinus Infection and Oil of Oregano by Mary Barnard (St. Vincent and the Grenadines)
Oil of Oregano helped cure my business partner’s chronic sinus infection. My business partner had a sinus infection so bad his doctor used his x-rays as a teaching tool. He had several operations, but each time the condition returned. I imported a gallon of pure oil of oregano from Turkey to share with my extensive family. I mixed small quantities at a time in a ratio of 4 to 1.
After taking two teaspoons initially daily for about a month his sinuses are completely cured. He no longer needs the antibiotics he was taking at lest 8 times a year and the pain killers he took daily. All these drugs had played havoc with his stomach and he had lost 40 lbs.
Today, a year and a half later, he only had one flare-up and that was when he had been off the oregano maintenance dose of one teaspoon daily for two weeks.
Reply: Curing Strep Throat with Oil of Oregano by Aimee (Texas, USA)
I got rid of strep throat twice in myself and once in my 7 yr old daughter using Oregano Oil in the proper doses 3x a day for 10 days. I had to put the oil in capsules so we could stand it! I also had an infected wound that didn’t get better with triple antibiotic ointment. I mixed the already diluted Oregano Oil I had with coconut oil and applied a few times a day with a bandage. The pain went away within minutes and the infection was gone within a few days.
