Oregano doesn't only give a pizza its typical taste. Researchers at Bonn University and the ETH Zurich have discovered the spice also contains a substance that appears to help cure inflammations.The researchers administered the active ingredient - beta-caryophyllin (E-BCP) - to mice with inflamed paws. In seven out of ten cases, symptoms improved. That means E-BCP might possibly help disorders such as osteoporosis and arteriosclerosis.
E-BCP is also found in basil, rosemary, cinnamon and black pepper. Read the rest at: http://www.medicalnewstoday.com:80/articles/112876.php.
