Some where along the way I came across a recipe for a healthy substitute for the well known Vicks Vaporub. I’m not a fan of the Vicks product since the main ingredient is petrolatum.
The rub that I make has two main ingredients
Coconut Oil and Oil of Oregano
Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
Oil of Oregano 100% organic extra strength
I have filled the jar with coconut oil and added about 7 drops of oil of oregano. Mix it well and close the lid to wait for usage.
The rub can be used pretty much the same as the Vaporub, you can add it to the temples, around the neck area, to the bottom of the feet and to the spine. I have found that it has helped our children get through their colds faster and in a milder form.
Oil of Oregano is a highly beneficial essential oil and can be used for multiple purposes e.g. anti fungal, anti bacterial, anti inflammatory, anti allergenic. But it is very important to use a good product since it is extremely potent!
