Lung & Respiratory Support Tincture
Lung & Respiratory Support Tincture
This warming soothing tincture is made with herbs that help support the lungs and respiratory system. In this day and age amidst smog, pollution, and toxic air, we could also use extra lung support.
Mullein (Verbascum thapsus) is one of the most infamous lung cleansing herbs and most commonly known as an autonomous volunteer plant (weed). They can be found in almost every type of climate and land, and usually are growing on the side of the road. They have been used for centuries for any and all respiratory conditions. Mullein works to gently and quickly remove toxins from the lungs and help clear airways, and works like an antibiotic- getting to inflammation before any infections can begin. Mullein is an expectorant, meaning it loosens mucous in the lungs.
Echinacea (Echinacea purpurea) Is the mother of all when it comes to lung and respiratory illness/infection. This gorgeous plant has been used all over the world for thousands of years. Echinacea raises the bodies natural resistance to infection by stimulating the immune system. She is antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory. Echinacea works best as a preventative plant but also is great at the start of an infection. Echinacea particularly shines in oral, throat, and lung infections.
Anise Hyssop (Agastache foeniculum) is another wonderful soothing herb to the lungs. Historically she has been a symbol of purification and healing. This herb is in the Anise family and so it has that famous licorice taste to it. That is exactly what she does. Anise Hyssop works to purify and detoxify the lungs on a cellular level. As a mucolytic, she helps break down mucous and stagnation which makes it easier for the lungs to expel congestion. Hyssop is great for those dealing with chronic respiratory issues. She is gentle and very effective.
Horehound (Marrubium vulgare) is another autonomous volunteer plant (weed) that grows in almost every type of land. Horehound is a part of the mint family and has been used for centuries as a tea, an herbal steam, an herbal smoke. Horehound has very deep healing effects on the respiratory system. When inhaled, you can feel your breathing become easier immediately. Horehound is actually found in a lot of mainstream cough drop brands including Ricola. As an expectorant, horehound loosens mucous and detoxifies the lungs. It also promotes regeneration of cells.
Elecampane Root (Inula helenium) belongs to the aster (sunflower) family and a very popular herb that herbalists use for treating respiratory issues. Many studies have been done showing how elecampane reduces inflammation in the lungs and treats wounded cells. It has been found to be one of the best herbs for sore throat pain and trouble breathing.
