Product Information
Mullein Leaf Tea by Alvita Teas Native to the cool temperate climates of Europe and Asia, Mullein (verbascum thapsus) is a tall, yellow-flowered plant often seen today growing wild in Britain and North America. Mullein is also known as Lady's Foxglove, Velvet Plant, Shepard's Herb and Old Man's Flannel. It has an interesting history of practical and cosmetic use. Anciently, fresh Mullein stalks were dipped in melted fat, ignited and carried as flaming tapers in ceremonial processions. The large, soft, hair-covered leaves were used as diapers by some early Indians and the leaves were also stuffed in shoes to keep thinly shod feet warm in the winter. Today, Mullein can be used as a floral rinse to brighten blond hair and the leaves and flowers contain mucilage and are valued for their soothing effects. Mullein Leaf Tea by Alvita Teas is used for urinary passages, dry cough, hoarseness, bronchitis, phlegm, whooping cough, cystitis, burning urine, diarrhea, lymphatic irritation, swelling and mumps. Mullein (Verbascum Thapsus) has been suggested for inflammation of respiratory.
