🌿 Herbs for Respiratory Health! 🫁 Respiratory health issues seem to be on the rise this season. I’ve been watching folks come down with upper and lower respiratory infections such as sore throat, coughing, and even walking pneumonia. It’s time to stock up on lung and immunity boosting herbs (I’ve listed some below), time to increase preventative care (increase Vitamin C intake), and conduct energetic cleanses. Now that it’s colder, it’s easier to reach for a soothing drink to warm your system. Hot herbal infusions, bone broth, and soups are great allies for this time. Licorice Root: Walking pneumonia is on the rise and there is definitely an increase in people dealing with persistent coughs. Something is going around – and while I encourage the use of mullein leaf and eucalyptus for lung health, I also encourage incorporating licorice root in your herbal infusions (teas) as it’s an herb of choice for alleviating chest discomfort, soothing coughs, sore throats and supporting respiratory health. Thyme: While we’re talking about respiratory discomfort, thyme has antimicrobial properties that makes it a great herb to fight against viruses. Thyme helps open up congested airways, loosens mucus, and can soothe irritated airways. Incorporate fresh thyme into your soups and broths for a bit of healing magic while cooking! I am not a medical doctor. Please seek advice from your doctor regarding herb usage for your health.
