Best Supplement for Sore throat: NOW Supplements, Oregano Oil with Ginger and Fennel Oil, Enteric Coated, 90 Softgels

Yes, finally knocked out my virus. Oregano oil works!

I had been sick for a month with a cold/flu/ear infection/strep hell concoction. I went through a round of antibiotics for strep and was doing better. When the pills were gone, I was immediately feeling like mashed dog poop again, starting with the worst Sore throat of my life. After a week of that, I ended up going to the ER because it was so bad, the pain was up in my ear. I was tested for strep again. Nope, a virus that had to be waited out. My thought was, "Are you freaking kidding me?" So, I was gargling with salt water, using lozenges with benzocaine, and downing ridiculous amounts of Tylenol and ibuprofen to keep the pain tolerable (not gone by any stretch of the imagination), and this led to fun stomach troubles. So, another week goes by, drained of energy, still feeling like I was swallowing around a golf ball, and constantly eating to keep my stomach settled, I remembered meeting someone who randomly told me of oregano oil and how it had saved her family from a lingering illness like this. So, I ordered this, started taking it right away, one capsule three times a day. And waited. Just a warning to people who need instant gratification: this is not Nyquil or morphine. You have to give it a little time to work. I woke up on my fifth morning and it was like a freaking miracle. Sore throat and swelling almost gone. Energy galore. My old self was peeking around the corner. I have been telling EVERYONE I come across about this. I cannot praise this stuff enough. It's not super expensive, very easy to swallow, and it's absolutely worth trying when nothing else works. Or before that, so you don't have to go through everything else

Prevents Colds/Flu in our family

We went to Northern Ontario last Summer and my husband started getting sick with a Sore throat, painful sinuses and his whole body felt crummy. We went into a health food store for some ginger type of concoction that might help him. We found out that the popular remedy up there is oil of oregano, they put 7 to 8 drops into a quarter cup of warm water taken 3 to 5 times a day. It worked so well, my husband was 100% well in two days. When I started getting sick I also tried it and I got well very fast too. The stores up in Northern Ontario sell of out oil of oregano because it is so popular. Now we take the capsules when we start feeling like we are getting sick

Potent

All I can say is this stuff works for nearly anything you want it to work for. Travelling, I was starting to get a Sore throat. I could tell it was going to be bad, and most likely followed up by a cold. I decided to take 2 Oil of Oregano pills without being sure it was going to do anything. That day I didn't feel anything, but the next day I was completely fine. There have been a few people who have commented about stomach issues after taking Oregano Oil. I too have experienced this, but I soon realized that it sort of works like a laxative --most oils do. So if I wanted cleaned out, Oregano Oil was going to do it for me. I was just going to experience some cramps along the way

I Think It Works for Me

I'm giving this product 5 stars. I haven't been taking it very long, about 3 weeks. When I first got the Oregano oil I felt as though I might be developing a cold. I was sneezing, had a Sore throat, and I felt rather listless. I took 2 or 3 capsules a day for about 4 days. Since then I have taken one per day. The cold never developed, I feel fine. The price was well worth preventing even one cold

Best Natural Defense!

Since I started using oregano oil capsules a few years ago I have been able to ward off the seasonal sinus and Sore throat problems that I used to have (especially since I work in a health-care clinic). It is a natural antibiotic, making our body resistant to and inhospitable to what I call the "yuck bugs" that cause sinus and throat infection. I've proved it to be true by using oregano every cold and flu season. I've been healthier ever since
