Fight fungal infections like athlete’s foot and thrush with the proven antifungal power of monarda essential oil. Also referred to as bee balm, this oil, which is native to North America, was used by Native Americans to treat fevers, respiratory issues, and coughs.
You do all you can to protect yourself and your family from skin irritations like cold sores, athlete’s foot, and impetigo, but sometimes you simply can’t. Monarda, or bee balm, has been shown in studies to have antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties that inhibit the growth of microorganisms. According to one study it “is superior to hydrocortisone in combination with vitamin B6 by its anti-inflammatory activity.” Traditionally it’s also been used to help fight respiratory infections, colds, and flu.
