As a well-known expectorant, mullein helps remove excess mucus from the lungs and soothes mucous membranes. People suffering from the symptoms of bronchitis, severe cough, colds, and asthma can get relief from mullein (leaves and flowers) as a tea or in the form of OTC herbal supplements. The natural washing substances contained in mullein leaves and flowers expel mucus from the lung walls. It also contains mucilage, a gelatinous substance that soothes irritated mucous membranes.
Mullein is a herb that is harvested in many regions throughout North America and can be found in many forms, including as an essential oil, a tincture, a leaf, or a flower.
