I just called the Walmart close to my home and they said that they carry Vitamen E and Greentree Oil, but not Oregano Oil or Oil of Oregano.

I think it's probably something that will more likely be found at a health food store, a vitamin shop, or your local GNC store.

Hey Brikie,
Im so exited to hear about your weightloss I went straight to my healthfood store yesterday and found the oil of oregano, and was suprised at how expensive it was both the liquid and the gel caps ran for $29 to $30 dollars and I sure I read you got yours for like $11
so I wanted to ask where you bought them and what brand is it?
The liquid form said it was maid out of wild oregano oil, is it the same kind?


thankl Lily

i bought mine at fred meyers for 11 dollars a bottle and it is oil from wild oregano. mine is Natures Way, and they have a website you can order it online if you cant find it. they also had at the fred meyers the 29 dollar bottle and the lady working there told me the Natures Way is a purer oil has more oil content or something. try online if you cant find it local.

congrats brikie on getting to your goal weight! Yea!

I found a website on-line and wanted to post this info for you all:

Oil of Oregano Effectively Treats:

· acne · allergies · arthritis · asthma · athlete's foot · constipation · croup · dandruff · diarrhea · digestive disturbances · insect bites · bronchitis · canker sores · colds · flu · earaches · fatigue · gum disease · parasites · headaches · menstrual irregularities · psoriasis · toenail problems · seborrhea · ringworm · rosacea · sinusitis · muscle pain · varicose veins · warts

for the liquid oil, It is strong, so when using it internally, start with small amounts, like one or two drops twice daily in juice.

Take one drop twice per day working your way to one drop four times per day. Mix with one teaspoon of honey, maple syrup, or olive oil to improve palatability. Take for a period of 15 days and then stop for 15 days. Then repeat the process.

~i'm not convinced if it aids in weight loss (unless it helps with contstipation...sorry to be gross) but with all the other benefits, it's worth a shot!

I ran out to the health foods store at lunch and bought a bottle. They had some for $30.00 a bottle but the health foods workers said there was Oil of Oregano by Solaray for $8.10, 150 MG. So, I took her advise and bought the Solaray. I am so excited. Thanks for the info.
