Keep your Lungs Healthy
Keeping our lungs healthy and airways clear becomes even more important in Winter to minimize excess mucous and attract microbial infections; use these kitchen herbs regularly.
Thyme – Cook with and add fresh or dried to smoothies. Used for bronchitis, asthma, whooping cough and more, the thymol clears infection and opens the airways up. Try Echinacea & Thyme Formula (http://tinyurl.com/43z86mfw)
Eucalyptus – These leaves are brilliantly used for chest infections, tuberculosis and more. They open up the lungs and the essential oils dispel infection. (Herbal Teas)
Sage – In the garden or supermarket as fresh. Cooking or teas. Use for coughs, colds and chest infections. The essential oils soothe coughs and calm airways.
In our lung blend called Breathe & Clear Herb Tea (http://tinyurl.com/6dmp49pu) we also have plantain leaves and although not a kitchen herb, it is nevertheless one of the gold star lung herbs. Excellent for lung care and useful for any kind of chest congestion and infection. (This tea also contains eucalyptus.)
