The oils in Herbacillin combine to form a powerful, yet safe broad based infection fighter, good for bacterial, viral, and fungal infections. Herbacillin is potent yet at the same time holistic. It selectively sustains beneficial intestinal flora, and does not contribute to the phenomena of antibiotic resistant bacteria. In fact, it may actually assist in the treatment of antibiotic resistant bacteria.2 Oregano Medicinally, oregano (Origanum vulgare) has a highly deserved reputation as a potent natural remedy. It contains over 130 medicinally and nutritionally active compounds.3 Chief among these compounds are Carvacrol and Thymol. These two antioxidant phenol compounds act as exceptionally strong healing agents. Internally, these phenols effectively support the body's immune, digestive and respiratory systems. This action enables oregano to act as a healer and preventative for a multitude of conditions affecting these vital body systems. Externally, these compounds work as an exceedingly powerful antibacterial, antifungal, antiseptic, and pain reliever. Multiple trials have demonstrated the ability of Oregano to kill numerous harmful organisms including Candida, E. Coli, Salmonella, Staphylococcus, and some Pneumonia causing bacteria.4, 5, 6, 7 Due to this ability to kill a wide range of bacteria, it is often used as a preservative in the food industry. Oregano has been utilized for centuries to treat respiratory problems such as colds, flu, asthma, bronchitis, and coughs. It is a valued digestive aide, as its consumption stimulates the appetite, enhances digestion, and acts as a diuretic. Externally, it is valued as a potent pain reliever, especially when treating arthritis and rheumatism. Oregano helps alleviate the pain associated with headaches, inflammations and insect bites. As well, the powerful antimicrobial properties of this herb assist to prevent infections and treat skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, athlete's foot, shingles, and neuralgia. Rosemary For thousands of years rosemary has been used to treat a wide variety of ailments including asthma, baldness, bronchitis, bruises, cancer, chills, colds, cough, dandruff, fever, hoarseness, headaches, hysteria, influenza, insomnia, infections, nervous tension, neuralgia, pain, poor memory, rheumatism and sprains.8 This culinary spice contains a diverse number of constituents. It is this variety of compounds that account for its multitude of medicinal benefits including analgesic, antimicrobial, antioxidant, antirheumatic, antiseptic, nervine, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, candidicide, fungicide, and parasiticide.9 This powerhouse combination enables rosemary to be a self-contained medicine chest. An exceedingly powerful antioxidant, liver supporting, anticancer, pain relieving, and memory enhancing agent, rosemary is also antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral. Clinical trials have confirmed rosemary's ability to safely kill numerous potentially deadly organisms including Staphylococcus, E. Coli, Candida, Salmonella, and Aspergillus bacteria. 10, 11, 12 Research into rosemary's benefits verifies this herb's antimicrobial action. Investigations also determined rosemary is helpful with digestion, respiratory and immune system problems. As one of the most potent antioxidants known, rosemary prevents free-radical damage, protects cells from deterioration and aids in the prevention of cancer. Rosemary is in fact a stronger antioxidant than Vitamin E. 12 Research performed on the anticancer activity of rosemary oil found that "... rosemary has proven to be a strong inhibitor of the development and growth of cancerous tumors." Investigators discovered that animals whose diets included rosemary oil had about half the incidence of colon cancer or lung cancer compared to those not fed rosemary oil. "Given orally or used topically, (rosemary oil) has consistently reduced the incidence of cancer by about half". 12, 13, 14 Garlic In recent years medical research has awakened to the health benefits of garlic. Rich in sulfur, it contains over 75 distinct sulfur compounds.15 These compounds are some of the most investigated and clinically researched naturally occurring compounds, with well over 1000 studies performed in the past 2 decades alone. 15 The sulfur and other medicinal compounds in garlic act together as health-promoting and healing agents that, in combination, are exceptionally strong. Oil of Garlic can be used to improve health both internally and externally, effectively supporting the cardiovascular, immune, and respiratory systems. This wide spectrum of actions enables garlic to be both a healer and preventative for a multitude of health conditions affecting vital body systems. Garlic is an exceedingly powerful anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, liver supporting, anticancer, and blood sugar balancer. It is also antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral, helping to combat infections without creating drug resistant bacteria. Garlic has pronounced activity as an antioxidant. As such, it helps rid the body of free-radicals, which contribute to cellular damage, premature aging and cancer.16 Garlic is very effective against Candidiasis (infection by Candida albicans), reportedly more capable than most antifungal agents for this difficult to treat infection.17 Studies have proven it effective at treating both internal and topical Candida infections.17 Garlic has a profound action on the liver. Clinical trials have demonstrated its ability to protect the liver from toxic doses of some chemicals. In the liver it appears to modulate the levels and actions of metabolizing enzymes, which control how the liver handles toxic substances.18, 19 Directions: Herbacillin can be used internally, externally and in aromatherapy as a versatile healer and nutritional provider.
