I can concur regarding Oregano oil. Came down with something this past week and it turned into an inner ear infection, with swollen lymph nodes on sides mor my neck. Was not looking forward to taking an antibiotic, and a friend suggested I try Oregano oil. Two days of consuming 6 drops in a glass of water twice a day, along with mullien oil ear drops ( a combo of oregano, garlic, and mullien) into my ears and everything is improving greatly. I did some reading up on oregano and wow, it has a lot of data behind it. Good stuff. Helps more than just infections. Dr. Axe has a great article on benefits of oregano oil. Got both items on Amazon.
