Top Medical Research Studies

We explored the potential of Origanum vulgare L. ssp. hirtum, commonly known as Greek oregano, in the realm of autoimmune disorders, particularly type 1 diabetes (T1D). This study specifically looked at how an ethyl acetate extract of oregano (EAO) could influence the development of T1D in mice.

To conduct the research, researchers induced type 1 diabetes in male C57BL/6 mice using multiple low doses of streptozotocin. They then treated these mice with EAO over ten days. Our findings revealed that EAO not only reduced the incidence of diabetes but also helped preserve pancreatic islets—critical for insulin production.

The results were promising as we observed significant immunomodulatory effects from the oregano extract. In vitro tests indicated that EAO suppressed the activation of immune cells, particularly macrophages and T lymphocytes. Furthermore, it appeared to decrease the levels of certain inflammatory T cell populations and their associated transcription factors, which play a role in promoting inflammation.

These discoveries suggest that oregano extract could potentially serve as a therapeutic option for managing type 1 diabetes by targeting the autoimmune responses involved in the disease. Overall, this study highlights an exciting avenue for plant-based treatments in diabetes management.

We explored the potential benefits of Oregano, specifically its methanolic extract, for treating type 1 diabetes (T1D), an autoimmune condition characterized by the destruction of insulin-producing β-cells in the pancreas. In our study, we investigated this by using a group of mice that were subjected to a diabetes-inducing treatment with streptozotocin.

We found that the methanolic extract of Oregano, also known as MOE, showed promising results in reducing diabetes incidence compared to the aqueous extract. MOE not only helped to maintain normal insulin secretion but also acted as a powerful antioxidant, reducing harmful reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in the body. This is significant since oxidative stress can worsen the state of autoimmune diseases.

Additionally, our research revealed that MOE played a role in modulating the immune response. It reduced inflammation by affecting T helper cells, which are crucial in the immune response—but not in a way that would hurt the body’s defenses. Importantly, MOE seemed to protect the pancreatic β-cells from programmed cell death, a critical factor in the progression of diabetes.

While one prominent compound in MOE, rosmarinic acid, offered only partial protection, the overall findings suggest that multiple components in the extract contribute to its beneficial effects. Overall, it appears that Oregano's properties as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic agent may help in managing T1D.

Oregano component improves immune regulation
We explored how a natural component found in oregano, known as carvacrol, can influence the body's immune response, particularly in the context of autoimmune arthritis. The study aimed to see if boosting the levels of heat-shock proteins like Hsp70 could help in regulating inflammation caused by the immune system.

Through both laboratory experiments and tests in mice, we found that carvacrol significantly increased the expression of Hsp70, which in turn enhanced T cell responses. This led to improved recognition of Hsp70 by T cells, suggesting that the immune system was effectively responding to this stress protein.

Furthermore, our results showed that carvacrol administration not only promoted the growth of protective T cells but also notably suppressed the symptoms of experimental arthritis. In fact, T cells taken from mice that had consumed carvacrol were capable of transferring this protective effect to other mice.

Overall, our findings indicate that dietary components like carvacrol can play a vital role in regulating immune responses, ultimately helping to manage inflammatory diseases like autoimmune arthritis.

Fantastic natural product! I've an autoimmune condition that occasionally affects my gut and leads to SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth). Rather than relying on anti-fungal medications, this natural oregano oil restores my health quickly! I commence with two capsules daily for a week, followed by one daily for the subsequent week or two.

I order oregano oil to manage my seasonal allergies. It works better for me than allergy shots or other medications; I can breathe freely. While most days I only take one softgel, two during peak allergy periods, the improvement has been remarkable.

Effective against CIGR/SIBR
6 people found this helpful
A very good preparation for combating CIGR/SIBR. It's best used in conjunction with similar functional products (like nim, monolaurin, or ant tree bark). It's important to introduce sorbents during the intake to eliminate dead pathogens. It’s easy to consume, and I followed the instructions for use. A very effective product!

Strong recommendation

If you are suffering from SEBO or intestinal issues caused by harmful bacteria, I highly recommend taking this. Take one pill daily before a substantial meal, as it’s potent. Note that harmful bacteria overgrowth has a strong odour, so avoid ordering it in the summer.
