About these herbs
Two classic herbs of the Western tradition meet in this blend. Mullein (Verbascum thapsus) leaf has been used for generations as a demulcent for the respiratory tract, and its flower is the subject of a European Medicines Agency traditional-use monograph for soothing an irritated throat and dry cough. Burdock (Arctium lappa) root is one of herbalism’s best-known “alteratives” — herbalists have traditionally used it as a blood-purifying and skin-supporting root, and published research has documented its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and liver-protective activities in laboratory studies. Paired together, they are a simple, traditional combination — soft leaf above ground, deep root below.
Suggested use
Shake well. Adults: take 1–2 droppersful (about 1–2 mL) in a little water or under the tongue, up to 3 times daily. Start at the lower amount and see how you respond.
