    The concept of living pharmacy is quite comprehensive, studying and caring for plants in practice for their medicinal and academic use is of great importance in promoting health; the origanum vulgare was used for the study, popularly known as Oregano, which originated from the lamiaceae family. Oregano has antioxidant characteristics due to its chemical composition: essential oil (0.15%-0.90%) in the dry plant, its main constituents being phenols: carvacrol, thymol, Y-terpene and p amene, which may vary according to with the locality where it was cultivated.
