Mullein tea

The leaves of the common mullein, which is indigenous to Europe, Asia, and Africa, are used to make mullein tea, a flavorful and fragrant infusion. For thousands of years, it has been used in traditional medicine as a treatment for respiratory illnesses like bronchitis, catarrh (an accumulation of mucus), and asthma. Mullein may help cure asthma symptoms like coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath by lowering inflammation, which eases the tension in your respiratory tract's muscles, according to research on both animals and humans. Still, additional study is required.

Mullein tea is offered in dried leaf form or in packed tea bags. Simply mix a few dried mullein leaves with 1 cup (240 mL) of boiling water and let them simmer for 15 to 30 minutes to produce mullein tea. To avoid irritating your throat, remove the leaves using a sieve or cheesecloth.
