Spanish oregano, orCorydothymus capitatus, is an aromatic plant native to the Mediterranean region that possessesvery powerful antimicrobial properties. It is recommended forrespiratory, urinary, skin, or intestinal infections. Spanish oregano essential oil is highly concentrated in carvacrol, thymol, paracymene, and gamma-terpinene. These various compounds give it the following main benefits and properties:

The high concentration of carvacrol (a phenol) in this essential oil helps combat all types of infections, including highly resistant nosocomial infections (those contracted during a hospital stay).This essential oil is a powerful antiviral and antibacterial agent; it is effective against Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Bacillus subtilis, Enterococcus faecalis, and Staphylococcus epidermidis.
- Antifungal: Carvacrol destroys fungi such as Candida albicans, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Aspergillus niger, and dermatophytes.
- Antiparasitic: Essential oils containing phenols—and particularly carvacrol in high concentrations—are among the best-known aromatic antiparasitic agents; Spanish oregano essential oil is one of them.
- Tonic: The carvacrol and monoterpenes (gamma-terpinene and paracymene) present in this essential oil stimulate numerous bodily functions and thus help maintain good overall health.
