In regards to the Oregano Oil capsules taken with each meal, can you clarify why we take it with food?

One stated reason was if taken on an empty stomach, the oil is "HOT" and could damage the stomach lining. Then the other reason was so that when taken with food, it gets deep within the intestinal layers and tissue, and when the bugs come to feed, they get hit with the Oregano. Oregano is volatile and strong. So slipping it in with food helps keep some people from burping it up. The food spreads out its influences and covers more “real estate”.
