Mullein is known for its expectorant properties, which help promote productive coughing and assist the body in clearing congestion. This can be particularly helpful for individuals experiencing dry or non-productive coughs and wheezing. Historical accounts indicate that Native Americans utilized mullein for various respiratory issues such as catarrh, coughs, colds, lung problems, and asthma. Some tribes even used it in smoking preparations to achieve these results, a method that some herbalists still recommend today for supporting lung health.
Long before antibiotics transformed modern medicine, mullein stood out as a trusted herbal remedy for a variety of respiratory ailments. Known for its powerful expectorant properties, mullein works by thinning and breaking down mucus, making it easier to expel from the body. Its leaves are rich in mucilage, which forms a soothing film over the moist membranes lining the respiratory tract; this not only reduces inflammation but also promotes comfort while healing. Mullein is more than just a soothing agent—it actively inhibits the growth of harmful germs. Excitingly, recent studies suggest that mullein may possess antiviral properties as well, potentially aiding in faster recovery from illnesses like influenza.
