Bacteril
Terry Naturally
Overview
Bacteril contains a blend of essential oils (cinnamon, thyme, clove, oregano) known for their antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. The product states these oils are 100 times more concentrated than dry herbs, which is a strong claim, but the exact concentration of each individual oil within the 75mg proprietary blend is not disclosed, making it impossible to assess if they are present at clinically effective doses. While the ingredients themselves have supportive research, the product's overall effectiveness for its stated purpose of immune and gastrointestinal support is difficult to definitively confirm due to the proprietary blend.
