Overview:

This formula is a safe and effective way to promote respiratory health without unwanted side effects:

The lungs and respiratory system allow oxygen in the air to be taken into the body, while also enabling the body to get rid of carbon dioxide in the air breathed out. Respiration is the term for the exchange of oxygen from the environment for carbon dioxide from the body’s cells.

The respiratory system consists of:

  • Nose and Nasal Cavity
  • Mouth
  • Pharynx
  • Larynx
  • Trachea
  • Bronchi and Bronchitis
  • Lungs
  • Muscles of Respiration

Mucus and the respiratory system:

  • Mucus (myo͞okəs) is a slippery aqueous secretion produced by, and covering, mucous membranes. We commonly call it phlegm, snot or sputum.
    • Mucus and its function.
      • Mucus coats and protects the mucous membranes.
        • Healthy production of mucus protects and is part of the defense system for respiratory diseases.
      • Mucus engulfs bacteria, viral infections, respiratory irritants and allergens. It acts as an elimination tool for the respiratory system.
      • Mucus is eliminated through the digestive tract and through the nose and mouth (blowing your nose or spitting it out through your mouth).
      • The production of mucus is necessary for the respiratory system to function at the healthiest levels.
  • Too much mucus!!!
    • Too much mucus can be a symptom of a cold, flu or other respiratory issues.
    • When there are irritants in the air (allergens) our body naturally produces more mucus to aid in the defense against the irritants.
    • When it engulfs bacteria or other irritants mucus itself can become infected and turn a greenish color.
    • A runny nose, sinus congestion, a cough or lung congestion are symptoms of too much mucus being produced and are typical symptoms of colds, flu’s, hayfever, allergies and other respiratory issues.
    • People cough when the lining of the windpipe becomes irritated. This often happens when a a person is sick or when the body is fighting off an illness and making lots of mucus or phlegm.
    • Too much mucus can also fill and put pressure on the sinus cavities. We often refer that to a sinus headache.

Mullein: Is a herb has been cultivated in Scotland and England for centuries as a medicinal herb for respiratory issues like coughs, lung congestion, bronchitis and nasal congestion.

  • Mullein contains a good amount of potassium and calcium phosphate.
    • ·These two organic salts are essential for rebuilding tissue, nervous system function, bone structure and in maintaining general health and well-being.
  • Mullein leaves and flowers are classified in traditional herbal literature as expectorants (promotes the discharge of mucus) and demulcents (soothes irritated mucous membranes). Historically, mullein has been used by herbalists as a remedy for the respiratory tract, particularly in cases of irritating coughs with bronchial congestion.
  • Mullein is an excellent herb for the respiratory system, and has been known as an astringent, which opens air passages allowing the person to breathe more freely.
  • Mullein is known by other names in other ancient cultures. The people of Rome and Ireland called it “lungwort” because of its use to cure lung disease in both humans and livestock (Muenscher, 1935; DeBray, 1978).
  • Mullein contains approximately 3% mucilage and small amounts of saponins and tannins. The mucilaginous constituents are thought to be responsible for the soothing actions on mucous membranes. The saponins may be responsible for the expectorant actions of mullein.University of Michigan Medical Health Article
