Lobelia

Lobelia (Lobelia inflata)

20G

Also known as Indian tobacco, this is a powerful herb traditionally used by Native Americans for respiratory support. It may help ease asthma, coughs, and bronchial congestion by relaxing airways and clearing mucus. Rich in alkaloids like lobeline, it can act as an expectorant and mild muscle relaxant. Studies suggest it may help in quitting tobacco as it uses the same receptors.

Lobelia Tea Recipe:

Steep a very small amount (¼ teaspoon dried lobelia) in 1 cup of hot water for 5 minutes. Strain and sip slowly for respiratory relief.

Use caution — lobelia is potent, and a bit of a creeper. Consult a qualified herbalist or doctor before use.
