So unlucky, @Gingergrrl!

Oregano oil is probably the most potent natural antibiotic. It will kill just about anything, including your friendly gut bacteria. So I would be careful using it long term.

@adreno I know, I really am pretty unlucky! Thanks for the warning re: the oil of oregano and I think I will take it for a few weeks in case I really was exposed to listeria but it will not be a long-term thing.
