Historically Oil of Oregano has been around for centuries. It has been touted in humans, as an Antimicrobial with great healing powers and is said to work for sore throats, stomach upsets, and respiratory issues and as an antiseptic.

Some forty years ago a movement started in Europe to ban the use of Antimicrobial Drugs as Growth Promoters.
