@hopeful33250 Many people use this tea because it often helps them breathe more effectively. It can help clear mucus, reduce coughing, and soothe the respiratory system. That being said, it likely varies in effectiveness with each individual. Some people love it. It's certainly a relatively inexpensive remedy worth trying.

@hopeful33250 I do find that it helps thin out the mucus but should really be used on a regular basis for additional benefits. I have not been very consistent but have gone back to 2 cups a day and will do my best to keep it up long term this time. It will be easier now since I have retired. While working full time it was awfully tough to keep up with everything.
