I use oregano oil to help clear a problem I have with my sinuses. I take eight drops of the stuff in a glass of juice. It is powerful stuff. I can barely drink it but it has made such a difference.

Hmmm, that sounds worth trying. But, I have a real problem trying to drink my meds. Lately, I even have trouble talking myself into taking my pills. When you are on so much medicine, it can become overwhelming.

I do have a lot of trouble with sinus infections. I am currently on three different sinus medications, plus an antibiotic for the infection part. Maybe, I could just put more oregano on my food?

Another thing that can help with sinuses is cayenne pepper. You can add it to food or you can purchase a nasal spray (pretty intense).

Adding oregano to your food won't make any difference for sinus infections though.

Have you tried (I know it sounds disgusting) pouring saltwater up your nose? You have to hang your head upside down to do it.

Well my throat is a little raw and I'm coming down with something. My wife had me give the oregano oil a try after I told her about this. That was awful. Hope it works but I don't know how you can stand it. Cayenne pepper sprayed up the nose is a really frightening thought. The salt water sounds about the safest.

I did say it was powerful stuff. Sorry I didn't warn you about how bad it was going to taste. Hopefully it burned out some of the bug that you're coming down with.

I've never heard of it. I would be interested in trying it though. I have sinus trouble all of the time and hate to take antibiotics all of the time.

BTW, where would you get oregano oil? I've looked at my local GNC and they've never heard of it. Of course the one by me is a small one and doesn't have a full line of products. I think I'd like to try this to help keep my sinuses clear. I'm so tired of all of the sprays and pills!
