Hello, welcome back to the podcast. I'm your host, Evan Brand, certified functional medicine practitioner and nutritional therapist. Thanks for joining me. I was gone last week, maybe the week before or two. As you can tell, my voice is a little messed up. I believe I had strep throat. My wife looked in the back and she saw a few yellow or white spots in the back of my throat and I thought, huh, maybe this is strep. Here's the cool thing,

though. Irregino oil, specifically my pure oregano formula, it has emulsified olive oil as the base for it. It's a very, very strong carbacral content, which is the active component of oregano.

It's a very potent antibiotic. And so most people, when they get strep, what do they do? They go to the doctor and

they get put on antibiotics like amoxicillin. Guess what that does? It kills all the good bacteria in your

gut. And then guess what? You get candida, which you probably are sick of hearing about because of my

Candida summit. If you're not sick of hearing it and you haven't checked it out yet go to canditasummit dot com go check

out my event it just ended but you can still go purchase all the talks 35 expert talks it was killer

i've got such great feedback from you guys so thank you for the support but anyhow that's what

most people do and i thought i don't want to do antibiotics i don't want to do antibiotics i know too

much about antibiotics and in the downfalls of them. Now, if my life were in

danger, yes, I would do them. But in this case of some type of a bacterial infection in the throat

like this, no, I've been hitting the oregano and I've also been hitting my microbiome support

number three formula, which is something I actually use for Candida as well. And the microbiome 3 has

ingredients like olive leaf, stinging

nettle, pall de arco bark, French tarragon leaf, tinospora, horsetail. These are various herbs that have

multiple properties. And this is the cool thing about herbs is you can use herbs that kill bacteria,

but that also kill viruses. Because sometimes with throat issues and any type of a sickness,

sometimes it is not bacterial and it's viral.

But it's really, really hard to discern between viral or bacteria because a lot of times

the symptoms overlap.

So the cool thing is with this protocol I'm running, it has antiviral and antimicrobial

component.
