Usnea:
Ok, so the dosage would probably follow the normal guidelines as the other tinctures.
We used 10-20 drops a few times per day for 10 days going by a boughten bottle because I did not have time to make a tincture yet.
The question is . . . If your taking it for ten days, should you take a break from it for a while. Maybe 2 weeks? and then if still needed, resume? I think the caution has to do with liver involvement?
Husband was on course of antibiotics that did not help at all. (so probably meaning it was not a bacteria that he was fighting) We tried Usnea. (He took 10 drops the first time) at 6 pm. That night when he went to bed his cough TOTALLY changed from gross to not gross.
The second night he coughed 2.5 times after going to bed. HUGE improvement over the last SEVERAL weeks.
He is not very good at taking things even though this was helping a lot.
So 1-2 weeks later after he stopped taking Usnea, he started coughing again.
Going to try Angelica until I figure out how long to wait before using the Usnea again.
Usnea is a god-send for lung issues!
