I’m looking forward to learning more about natural healing. I have been watching herbalist on YouTube and recently learned that the mullein leaf is good for the lungs….I would like to learn more about how it works and what makes it good for the lungs.
I am new too, Welcome. I started using mullein years ago for my “smooshed in face” dogs. Then myself, and now I grow it. Not to mention I see it everywhere on the highway. I love all its applications and ways you can use it- infused in oil, tincture, and smoking it. Using the flowers has been the hardest for me as I have little black bugs that like the flowers.
Have a look at the Respiratory system lesson. Mullein does a lot of good things for the lungs, it sedates the muscles of the bronchi and thus serves as a cough suppressant and bronchodilator (which is good for asthma). It’s also a pretty good expectorant for getting goobers out of the lungs. It has some excellent antiviral properties against several of the respiratory viruses as well. :0)
