“Herbs for Health Series – Respiratory System” Presented by Sharon Murphy, Resource for Life

We are not only what we eat, but also what we breathe. The lungs are one of the organs of elimination. Over the centuries, herbs have been used effectively to help those who suffer from upper and lower respiratory imbalances. With industrialization, many pollutants have been introduced into the air we breathe. Any problems with breathing will not only affect other organs and systems, but may also cause disease in these systems.

Herbs are beneficial for the respiratory system because of their regulatory properties. Expectorants, astringents, demulcents, anti-inflammatories are just a few of these properties. Once the symptoms are identified, the correct remedy can be taken. Children and the elderly benefit enormously in this area.
