when i was driving over the road i would stop at an assortment of truck stops and i remember one in particular, "wheeling wva." an elderly lady was being helped to a table and looked like she couldn't breathe, i asked her about it and she told me she was on "27different meds", i told her about my tea and asked if she would like to try it?? she replied she would like to do so, so i went to my truck and returned with a 8oz bottle of it, i first asked her to take a deep breath and tell me how deep she could feel the air go into her lungs she did and indicated not quite half way down, she then took some of the tea and repeated the deep breathing, this time she indicated nearly all the way but not quite all the way, this was all within a matter of 5 to 10 minutes, she volunteered "i haven't been able to breathe like this in years" ( i had those i gave it to take the cap off a plastic pop bottle and use it as a measure, then take one capfull straight down the second, hold in the mouth for a minute or so and swallow slowly, then the same with a third, but after swallowing breathe in with the mouth then out through the " nose" ) let me reinterate " i am not a doctor, nor do i pretend to be"! i simply instructed people and made the tea according to what my inner voice told me to"!

Hi Jack, I need this for my dad that has emphysema (he quit smoking 40 years ago). I am gathering the ingredients for the tea. I can find great mullein flower powder and leaf powder. I have no access to fresh plants, neither does my dad. So my question is what is equivalent amount (6 pods) in powder form I can use to prepare the tea? Shell I use flower or leaf powder?

Hi Maria, my dad already tried that but it doesn't seem to help. He has been on MSM for a year now. Seems what helps him most is cayenne pepper but he started getting some bruisers all over his skin so he stopped it as we don't know what else cayenne is doing to him. I bought dried mullein flowers but I am not sure how much of it in grams equates to the recipe.

judi; my sincerest appologies for the delay in getting back to you, "as for the great mullien" i used as a matter of fact when crossing the country driving truck one of the best places i found to aquire " great mullien" was along the interstates in arizona and new mexico, along the highways i would just pull over and break off the tops of the plants (seed pods only) this time of year is good because it looks like long sticks sticking up and some would get forks in the top of the plant (thats ok) as for the other ingredients just punch in "herbal suppliers" in one of your search engines i use google you should also search for "pics of great mullein the herb

here's the formula i used for curing a bad case of emphysema for "willard booth" of marion ark 12 yrs ago. into a gallon pot, put the seed pods (tops) of 6 "great mullein" plant, bring to a boil, add 3 tbls of powered "lobelia", and also "hyssop" 1 oz of white apple cider vinegar, 2 tbls of powdered cayenne red pepper. keep boiling until about a pint of water has boiled off, (it will turn dark or reddish like coffee). let cool until you can strain (i used a nylon stocking). sweeten with sugar or honey to taste this will keep in frig for a week or more ( look up "great mullein" and you'll be surprised at what all it can do!). hyssop and lobelia are great expectorants!! i had willard take 3 pop bottle caps a day but you can take more it won' t hurt you, you can also use a heating pad on chest and do a number of "vigorous exhales" for about 15 minutes after taking .... good luck and god bless...

For a sore throat use hyssop tea (prepare according to directions) and honey to sweeten as often as needed.

I am desperately seeking information about the lobelia in Jacks recipe. I keep seeing that lobelia is poison, then the second recipe says lobelia should never be boiled. Can anyone answer about these things?

Lobelia is not poison. It's an emetic and a purgative if used in significant quantities (I read 800-1200 mg). It should not be boiled but one should pour hot water over it after boiling it, and let it steep. In modest doses it's an excellent relaxant.
