Among the effective hits, five essential oils (oregano, cinnamon bark, clove bud, citronella, and wintergreen) still showed better activity than 40 µM Dap at 0.25% concentration (Table 1; Figure 1C). Eventually, oregano, cinnamon bark, and clove bud were identified as the most active essential oils because of their remarkable activity even at the lowest concentration of 0.125%, which showed similar or better activity than 40 µM Dap (Table 1; Figure 1D).

In a previous study, oregano oil was found to have antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria (26). Here, for the first time, we identified oregano oil as having a highly potent activity against stationary phase B. burgdorferi.

In addition to the above findings, we noted that oregano oil can dramatically reduce the size of aggregated biofilm-like microcolonies compared to the antibiotic controls (Figure 1).

Well the study was in a test tube if I'm reading it correctly.

But yeah you would ingest it, after making sure you found a brand that's safe to ingest.

Very little though, just a few drops, diluted.

🙏keep us posted! Good luck!

One of the reason I loved Beyond Balance MC-BB-2 was because of the clove oil taste. Oh gosh that stuff tasted and smelled so yummy.
