How to make oil of oregano with black seed oil
You'll need food-grade oregano essential oil, fresh cold-pressed black seed oil and a clean dark glass dropper bottle.
- Pour 30 ml (about 2 tablespoons) of black seed oil into the bottle.
- Add a small amount of oregano essential oil — many people start with just a few drops per 30 ml.
- Close and gently roll the bottle to mix.
- Label with the date and store somewhere cool and dark.
- Use within a few months, and shake before each use.
Safety first
Never drink undiluted oregano essential oil — it can burn the mouth and throat. Not all essential oils are safe to swallow; check that yours is labelled for internal or food use.
Homemade vs ready-made
Homemade blends are cheap, but strength varies with the essential oil's carvacrol content, and it's easy to over-concentrate. A ready-made blend gives you a consistent, labelled amount per serving.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use dried oregano instead?
Soaking dried oregano in black seed oil gives a mild, flavoured oil, but far less carvacrol than essential oil.
The bottom line
You can make it by diluting a little food-grade oregano essential oil in black seed oil — but a ready-made blend is easier to dose safely.
