Mullein: Known as Verbascum thapsus, its Latin name, mullein is considered beneficial for the lungs because it is an expectorant. This means that the herb may help the body remove excess mucus from lungs and soothes the mucus membranes with its emollient properties. It is therefore excellent for helping with the relief of bronchitis, heavy coughing, chest colds and even asthma. Both the leaves and the flowers of the plant contain saponins, natural detergents which make a cough more productive in releasing and expelling phlegm from the walls of the lungs, and mucilage, a gelatinous substance which soothes any irritated membrane.
Licorice Root: Among it's medical properties, Licorice Root acts as a demulcent (soothes/protects damaged or inflammed tissue) and/or as an expectorant (assists in the expelling of old/thick mucus from the throat and lungs - same as Mucinex or Robitussin). In traditional Chinese medicine, Licorice Root has been used for thousands of years for all kinds of Lung ailments.
