⚠️ A Word of Caution: Nature Isn’t Always Neutral
While oregano is safe in culinary amounts, there are limits:
❌
Essential oils are potent
Never consume undiluted oregano oil — can damage mucous membranes
❌
High doses may irritate
Large amounts can upset the stomach or interact with medications
❗
Pregnancy & breastfeeding
Avoid concentrated forms; small food use is generally safe
❗
Autoimmune conditions
Consult your doctor — immune-stimulating herbs may not be appropriate
✅ Bottom line: One leaf a day = safe for most people.
❌ Supplements or oils = consult a professional first.
