It has
been over centuries that Oregano tea has been used all over the world. Did this
thing ever come across your mind that why and what made this tea so popular??
Not just because it has a bunch or herbs in it or an ancient recipe ( well it actually
has herbs!!) but because it has abundance of healing agents and immunity
boosting agents that give your body a head start in being strong and also treat
unwanted disorders.
Why Oregano is the best?
Oregano
contains many essential compounds including quercetin, eriocitrin,
luteolin-7-O-glucoside, apigenin-7-O-glucoside, luteolin, apigenin, and
rosmaric acid (in short, all those good things your body need). These all are
very powerful antioxidants, which means they will make you look younger (actually
they reduce aging pace). These antioxidants reduce and heal the damages done to
your body due to oxidation (oxygen turned bad!! Whoa!!).
Many
researchers have shown that Oregano has a more powerful effect on your body
than BHT or BHA which are synthetic antioxidants that are usually added to
packed eatables. Now oregano tea helps you with oxidation and also with bad
cholesterol. It actually has proved to lower it drastically.
Reduces LDL (bad) cholesterol
In a
study published in the International Food Journal of Sciences and Nutrition in
2007, a corollary came out as drinking oregano tea does have antioxidant
results as well as resulting in lowered LDL (bad) cholesterol levels. (You have
got to love that now!!)
Coming
on to treatment part of this herb, it is able to treat bronchitis, asthma,
heartburn, cramps, bloating, headaches, muscle pain, fatigue toothaches, and
gum disease successfully.
It has
anti-inflammatory benefits which are also instrumental in treating osteoporosis
and arteriosclerosis.
Anti-cancer properties
Now
this one catches our eye here. Studies have shown that there are several
compounds in oregano that can help fight cancer. It contains quercetin, which
is known to slow down cancer growth and also promotes apoptosis (now that would
be good news, won’t it be??).
A 2008
study published in the Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology found that oregano
extract improved the condition of animals suffering from colon cancer in
laboratory, an effect the authors attributed to oregano’s antioxidant
properties.
