Has anyone of you tried to take Mullein supplements?

I just started taking an herbal lung tonic with mullein in it and I’m hopeful! Glad to hear it works for you!

What else is in your lung tonic besides mullein?

I have been using a powdered tea from Primal Herb called Lung Renew for almost two years. You can Google it and read about it. You can drink it twice a day, using 1/2 tsp in hot water each time. I only use it once but have found that it really loosens things up. The other herbs in it, like elecampagne and honeysuckle, also help with the inflammation and mucus. Anyway, I have found it very soothing. Each box contains 100 servings of 1/2 tsp each.

What form of supplement and brand do you take? I’ve tried the mullein tea but have not found it helpful.

Here is what Healthline has to say about Mullein as a supplement:
https://www.healthline.com/health/mullein-leaf#herbal-supplement-risks
It has a number of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, but it has not been shown to be effective against mycobacteria, and there are limited studies about it.

In choosing herbal tonics and supplements, remember that these are not tested or approved by the FDA or USDA, so it is "buyer beware". Look for supplements that:
1) List ALL ingredients, including fillers. Remember, multiple names - common, scientific, ayurvedic, and patent - can be used. If you see an unfamiliar ingredient, look it up to be sure it is not something that your are allergic to or that may interact with other things you take.
2) List the quantity of each ingredient in each recommended dose. Often, cheap filler prevail and only miniscule amounts of the herb you need are there.
3) Carry an independent certification label on the product your are buying - not just say on the website "independently tested" or "purity tested." USP (US Pharmacoepia Convention) or CGMP (Current Good Mnaufacturing Processes) are two labels, and should be on the package. Some distributors certify only a few of their products, othere they just resell from other sources.
4) If possible, by single-herb preparations, at least to start with. That way, if you have a reaction, you will know what ccused it.

Thank you for this great advice. I bought my elixir from an herbalist collective in Sebastopol, CA called Taproot Medicine, so probably not tested in all the ways indicated here. The warning is worth heeding. I particularly like the idea of using one herb at a time.

Hi Paxmundi,
You’re welc😊me. If you google Mullein, you’ll find many useful and positive information on its medicinal properties. Mycobacteria specifically.

Yes, Sue I agree with you on all the above and especially Number 4.
Thanks for all your sharing of the website and research you have done.
I have wanted to try Mullein Tea with the pure herb itself but haven't found my way to doing it yet....

I drink Buddha organic mullein leaf tea, sometimes with a small teaspoon of Manuka honey. Link is below but you can get it on Amazon as well. I also like Yogi Breathe Deep tea which has mullein in it. Both are very soothing and can’t hurt 🙂
