FAQ
Q: Is Pennyroyal Oregano safe for daily use?
A: In small culinary amounts, it may be safe for most adults. However, Pennyroyal contains compounds that can be toxic in large doses. Always consult a healthcare professional before using it regularly, especially during pregnancy or if you have liver or kidney issues.
Q: Can it really help with vision?
A: While clinical evidence is limited, Pennyroyal Oregano contains antioxidants and volatile oils that may reduce oxidative stress—a contributor to vision decline.
Q: Can I use other types of oregano instead?
A: Yes. Mediterranean oregano (Origanum vulgare) is safer for regular consumption and still offers antioxidant benefits, though its properties differ slightly from Pennyroyal.
Q: Are there any known side effects?
A: High doses of Pennyroyal oil can be toxic. Use only dried or fresh herb forms in culinary doses and avoid concentrated oils unless under professional guidance.
