A traditional-style lung formula, that covers the four key needs of respiratory support:
 
 1. Mucus management (thin, loosen, clear)
Mullein – classic expectorant + demulcent
Elecampane – deep lung expectorant, bronchial relaxant
Licorice root – thins and soothes mucus
Plantain – supports healthy mucus production and clearance
This combo helps move stuck, thick mucus without harsh stimulation.
 
Cough & throat soothing
Mullein – coats irritated tissues
Plantain – calms inflamed mucous membranes
Horehound – traditional cough and throat herb
Licorice root – soothing, anti-irritant
Excellent for dry, irritated, or persistent coughs.
 
Breathing ease & bronchial support
Elecampane – relaxes tracheal smooth muscle
Peppermint – menthol supports open airways
Horehound – supports relaxed, efficient breathing
Helpful for congestion, chest tightness, and sluggish lungs.
 
Immune & antioxidant support
Elderberry – immune and respiratory recovery support
Licorice root – immune-modulating
Peppermint, ginger, cinnamon, star anise – antimicrobial and warming
Good during colds, seasonal illness, or recovery phases.
 
Role of the warming spices
Star anise, cinnamon, and ginger:
improve circulation to the lungs
prevent the blend from becoming too cold or damp
enhance flavor and digestion
add antimicrobial support
They’re well chosen and not just there “for taste.”
 
This is not a daily, long-term tea
Best used:
during colds, coughs, congestion
seasonal respiratory support
short courses (1–3 weeks)
Licorice root
Avoid long-term use if:
high blood pressure
potassium imbalance
on certain medications
