Mullein capsules

Mullein has a long history of medicinal use and grows abundantly in the wild. The plant is native to Europe, the Mediterranean, North Africa and Asia, and has been around for thousand of years. The name is a derivation of the Latin word ‘Mollis’ which means soft and refers to the texture of the leaves. Mullein has more than 200 species and the most popular type used is common mullein, also known as verbascum thapsus. The leaves are harvested near the bottom of the plant and used either fresh or dried to make various products. Our Mullein herbal capsules consist of dried common mullein leaves.

The plant carries different active compounds, such as saponins, flavonoids, phenylethanoid and iridoids, that have anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antioxidant and antitumor properties. It is an expectorant, which means that it helps the body expel excess mucus, usually by bringing up mucus in the chest or throat area by making your coughs more productive. This qualifies it as a great herb to detoxify the lungs after quitting smoking. Mullein has been used for respiratory conditions such as asthma, bronchitis, congestion, whooping cough and dry cough for thousand of years. It also has strong antiviral effects, being particularly useful against the influenza virus.
