Great Mullein Tincture INFO
1. Loosens mucus
Mullein is an expectorant, a substance that thins mucus (phlegm) and makes it easier to cough up. Expectorants help break up mucus to get it out of your system.
2. Calms inflammation
When you have lung and throat issues, using mullein may relieve some of your discomfort. Its flowers and leaves contain mucilage, which coats mucous membranes (the moist linings inside of your respiratory tract) with a film, reducing inflammation.
Because of its anti-inflammatory effects, salves and oils that contain mullein can also help relieve pain and irritation in skin wounds.
3. Protects cells
Mullein contains antioxidants, including vitamin C and flavonoids (substances found in fruits and vegetables). Antioxidants protect cells from free radicals, unstable molecules that damage your cells.
One research paper highlights this benefit, showing that mullein stem extract combined with alcohol was 85% effective at protecting cells from damage. As mullein has antioxidant properties, it boosts your body’s natural defenses.
4. Fights germs
Mullein has antiseptic qualities, meaning it prevents the growth of disease-causing germs. One study found that it was effective at fighting pneumonia, staph and E. coli bacteria.
Other research indicates that mullein has antiviral properties, too, and may even slow the influenza virus. Taking mullein when you have a cold or flu may help you beat the infection faster.
