Respiratory Tea is an herbal combination created to help address the various discomforts brought on by respiratory conditions. It consists of the following herbs:
Marshmallow Root - a mucilaginous herb which means it is softening, moistening, and anti-inflammatory. It breaks up hardened tissue.
Plantain Leaf - also softening and moistening. It helps pull lingering water and mucus up from the depths of the lungs.
Coltsfoot Leaf - helps when lungs have been damaged by scar tissue and where mucus is deep in the lungs and dry, or wet and sticky, and therefore difficult to bring up and expel.
Mullein Flower - helps with coughs that are dry and harsh.
Anise Seed - is useful for dry, painful, spasming coughs with heavy phlegm difficult to raise.
Thyme Leaf - thins excess mucus and helps relieve shortness of breath. It helps remove old, stuck mucus.
Slippery Elm Bark - helps moisten, cool, cleanse, and heal the lungs as well as deepen respiration.
Peppermint Leaf - increases respiration and oxygenation.
