Endemic Sütçüler Oregano: 85% Carvacrol & Safe Dilution

The Botanical Marvel of the Isparta Lakes District

Analytical gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) reveals that Sütçüler oregano consistently yields up to $85 - 90\%$ pure carvacrol in its distilled essential oil—the highest concentration of carvacrol documented in any botanical species on Earth!

[!WARNING]
Essential Oil Safety Prerequisite: Pure oregano essential oil is extremely caustic and can cause severe chemical burns to oral and esophageal mucosa if swallowed undiluted. Never ingest pure essential oil drops in plain water. Always dilute 1 to 2 drops in at least 1 tablespoon ($15\text{ ml}$) of extra virgin olive oil or take in enteric-coated capsules.
