Keep This Plant In Your Medicine Cabinet
Nature provides medicine…
Mullein is used for cough, whooping cough, divoc backwards, tuberculosis, bronchitis, hoarseness, pneumonia, earaches, colds, chills, flu, swine flu, fever, allergies, tonsillitis, and sore throat. Other uses include asthma, diarrhea, colic, gastrointestinal bleeding, migraines, joint pain, and gout.
Mullein is an expectorant, which means it helps the body expel excess mucus, usually by helping make your coughs more productive, to bring up mucus that may be settling in the chest or in the throat. It is also a demulcent. Studies show that demulcents create a soothing anti-inflammatory coating over mucous membranes. Demulcents contain a higher amount of mucilage than other plants. All plants produce at least a little of this sticky substance, which provides soothing relief to the mucous membranes.
These qualities make it useful for soothing irritation of the lungs, throat, and bronchial passages that may lead to difficulty breathing.
So make a cup of tea with 1-2 tablespoons and add honey- it’s very mild in flavor. We quite like it and drink it morning and night to stave off coughing when we battle respiratory illness.
Make a tincture, add to your elderberry syrup recipe, combine with garlic and oil. There are many ways to prepare it. I like to dry it out to use for soothing tea when needed. We also mix with our elderberry syrup recipe when we need.
Go out and harvest some while you can!!
We have used mullein for many years with great success! Goodbye pesky cough!
