Mullein Tops
Botanical name: (Verbascum)
Also Known As: Velvet plants
Verbascum thapsus
Mullein is native to much of the world's temperate climactic zones including Europe, Western Asia, and Eastern North America. It grows as a long stalk with broad leaves and a flowered spike atop.
It is perhaps best well known for its demulcent, astringent and emollient properties, although it also has distinctive sedative properties as well. It is also known to be an anti—viral and a diuretic. It has been used to treat bronchitis, alleviate cold symptoms, and reduce mucous and congestion. Mullein is a great weapon during cold and flu season.
Mullein is high in iron, magnesium, potassium, and sulfur. It is considered the herb of choice for respiratory problems and pulmonary diseases. Not only does it loosen mucus and expel it out of the body but it also calms spasms, is a natural painkiller and helps to reduce swelling in the glandular system.
