Oil of Oregano is a volatile essential oil extracted from theoreganograss.

Oregano oil has been approved by the Ministry of Agriculture of my country for use in animals very early (2001) as an importantfeed additive. Oregano oil mainly contains thymol, carvacrol, etc. In recent years, studies have found that it has good antibacterial and growth-promoting effects, and it is called an “antibiotic substitute.”It has a strong antibacterial effect and can also promote the regulation of the animal body and promote growth.

Dozens of studies confirm thatoreganooil can replace harmful antibiotics for many health problems. A 2011 study published in the Journal of Medicinal Foods examining the antibacterial activity of oregano essential oil against five different types of bacteria showed that oregano essential oil exhibited significant antibacterial properties against all five types of bacteria. The highest activity against E. coli suggests that oregano essential oil could potentially be used to promote gastrointestinal health and prevent fatal food poisoning. 
A 2013 study published in the Journal of Food and Agricultural Sciences concluded that “wild oregano extracts and essential oils from Portugal are strong candidates to replace the synthetic chemicals used by the industry.” Oregano The antioxidant and antibacterial properties showed that oregano inhibited the growth of 7 tested bacteria, while other plant extracts did not. 
A study involving mice published in the journal Revista Brasileira de Farmacognosia also found impressive results: In addition to fighting bacteria like Listeria and E. coli, they also found that oregano essential oil may help Evidence of pathogenic fungi. 
Other evidence suggests that oregano oil’s active compounds, such as thymol and carvacrol, can help fight toothaches and earaches caused by bacterial infections.

1)Natural fungicides —- can prevent and treat infections in the gastrointestinal tract of animals, such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Pasteurella, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, coccidioides and other diseases.                                             

2)the natural preservative —-anti-microbial growth, anti-flavase toxin, antioxidant effects, Prevent feed deterioration.                                

3)better than antibiotics —- no residue, no pollution, microorganisms do not produce resistance to it, and antibiotic incompatibility.                                         

4)good economy —- long-term use can improve feed conversion rate, promote animal growth. In the cosmetics industry —- can be used as raw materials of skin care products and beauty products, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, beautifying skin. In the food industry —- as a naturally extracted flavor and preservative.
