This simple natural recipe uses oregano — a medicinal herb known for its antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and antiparasitic properties. Oregano (especially its oil or tea) has been traditionally used to support the immune system and fight infections naturally.
📝 Ingredients:
- 1 cup water
- 1 tsp dried oregano (or 1 tbsp fresh leaves, chopped)
- 1 tsp honey (optional, for taste)
- 1 tsp lemon juice (optional, for extra vitamin C)
đź«• Instructions:
- Boil the water in a small pot.
- Once boiling, add the oregano leaves.
- Cover and simmer for 5 minutes on low heat.
- Turn off the heat and let it steep for another 5 minutes.
- Strain the tea into a cup.
- Add honey and lemon if desired.

🌿 How to Use:
- Drink 1 cup daily for 5–7 days to support the body’s natural defenses.
- For respiratory or flu support, drink it warm 2Ă— daily.
- You can also use cooled oregano tea as a wash for external infections (e.g., skin, feet).
⚠️ Important Notes:
- This is a traditional home remedy, not a medical cure.
- Always consult a healthcare professional before using it if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, on medication, or have medical conditions.
