Commonly known as “The Lung Herb,” Mullein Leaves are one of the best botanicals you can reach for when your chest needs support. A familiar staple across European herbalism, American folk remedies, and African traditional medicine. It's most commonly enjoyed as a tea, but for those who aren’t fond of the taste, it’s often used in herbal steams to help relieve chest congestion.
In modern herbal studies, Mullein has shown benefits for dry coughs, asthma, bronchitis, and even what some call "smoker’s lungs."

♡ Why we love it: Mullein Leaves are full of active compounds that make it a go-to for gentle, effective relief. Mucilage helps soothe irritated mucous membranes, saponins work to loosen phlegm, while flavonoids provide anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits - and tannins add a mild astringent effect. Together, these support respiratory health, calm the body after illness, and even assist with lymphatic drainage. Topically, Mullein Leaf extracts can be soothing for skin irritation, burns, and swelling - making it a great multitasker for both inside and out.
