Product Description

Mullein is an old and respected treatment for respiratory problems, including dry, hacking and unproductive coughs. It's a good herb to have handy for flu and chest colds. Mullein is also a mild sedative, herbal pain reliever and demulcent that is soothing to inflamed tissues.

Treating both dry, hacking coughs and mucus-producing coughs is among the traditional uses for mullein leaves. The leaves break down excess mucus and act as a demulcent, helping relax and protect lung tissues. Nineteenth century herbalists used the herb to treat tuberculosis. To treat coughs, crush dry leaves and place them in cigarette rolling papers or a pipe to smoke, advise medicinal plant experts at New Mexico State University. Before smoking mullein, consult a health-care provider for guidance on appropriate dosage and methods.

Because the mullein plant has mild sedative properties, mullein leaf tea provides a natural way to soothe your nerves. You can make mullein tea from six large mullein leaves and 5 cups water, suggest experts from Brandeis University. Bruised or dry leaves are ideal. Break the leaves into small parts and place in a teapot. Pour in boiling hot water and steep for five minutes. Strain the tea through a fine cloth, such as cheese cloth, to remove the leaves' hairs, which could irritate your throat. For sweeter tea, add a little honey.
