Oil Of Oregano

Hi MH,

I have been dealing with anxiety/panic disorder for quite some time to the point where I can not work anymore. I have tried to heal myself on my own meaning I do not take pharmaceutical drugs. I have tried juice fasting (25 days), Superfood, IF 1 & 2, barefooting, coffee enemas, etc. Albeit, I am not 100% disciplined. I recently had a root canal removed in the hopes that was my cause. Although I am happy to have the tooth out I did not have the 'miraculous' healing I was looking for. In order to heal my mouth, a week after extraction I began oil pulling and I then remembered that I had a small bottle of Oil of Oregano that I bought from MH awhile back. I had never opened the bottle and have never used Oregano in the past. Anyway, I began adding a drop or two to my oil pulling to see I there was an added benefit. I, also, began taking a drop or two internally. TAAA DAAAA....

I felt some relief from my anxiety. I was able to drive to my destination on a highway that I rarely if ever take and usually I have to pull off after an exit or two and take the back roads. I have now done this three times which is significant. I am still not 100% comfortable and I am aware of some anxiety but I have been able to deal with it. I have not yet attempted an interstate highway which seems to big at this point. I have noticed some improvement in my anxiety when I am with people. I would say there is a 40% improvement. I have been more motivated to get things done around the house. These are drastic improvements from just taking a few drops of Oil of Oregano a day. I usually take 2 drops of oil 2-3 times a day 4 hours apart.

I do have a few questions/concerns about taking the oil:

-I have in the past felt a little pain in my kidney area from time to time, however I do feel that the pain is more frequent and stronger when I take the oil. I do have some yellowing on the bottom of my feet. I was wondering if that has something to do with the coffee enemas I do. What can I do to help my kidneys? Or is the oil not right for me?

-The oil certainly gives me energy but it seems to wear off in about 3.5 hours at which point I sometimes become extremely tired as if I need to lay down right where I am. Is this to be expected? Is this rise and fall of energy dangerous long term? Have you ever worked with someone who uses the oregano for anxiety? Did they have to use it forever or can one usually reduce the drops used?

-I have read that oregano oil can be dangerous for the liver and that it should not be taken for more than 3 weeks. Is this true?


Thank You!
