Certified Organic Lobelia Liquid Extract for Musculoskeletal System Support - 1 Ounce

it's so good product

I work in a school and live in a zone with a lot of allergens, so I'm always sniffling, with postnasal drip trying to settle in my lungs despite allergy meds. I have frequent coughs due to the above-mentioned, and also due to catching all kinds of things from the kiddos I work with. Bronchitis and pneumonia are not strangers to me. It is important to not allow stuff to settle in one's lungs so I have a whole kitchen cabinet full of over the counter and natural remedies from claritin to flonase to mullien to mucinex to oscillococinum to sinusalia (and many many others) and I use them faithfully. I bought lobelia because I read in multiple places how great it is for lung ailments and put it in my cabinet, where I promptly forgot all about it. I saw this tincture in the back of my kitchen-turned-medicine cabinet after a 6-month case of persistent on and off bronchitis, and decided to give it a try (I know, I should've thought of it sooner)! And let me tell you, within 30 minutes of taking 20 drops in my coffee, everything cleared! My constantly-dripping sinuses and my lungs are clear!!! It's been a week and I'm still clear and it's glorious! I took 20 drops (as suggested on the label) in liquid 3 times on the 1st day, 2 times on the second, and have been taking it once a day after that. Will taper off to 10 drops for a week and then stop to see how that works. If I start getting congested again, I will restart. Nothing else I had done (literally dozens of other remedies) has done what this Herb Farm lobelia has done. This is as clear as a set of lungs and sinuses can get. I appreciate having this herb and being able to use it. The price is great ( over 2-months' supply if you take it once a day), and I also like that they distill their tincture in a natural way. Give it a try, it may be the one thing that would solve your problem.

Lobelia in this product is a standard extract -and an excellent preparation (NOT FOR USE DURING PREGNANCY) - I like Herb Pharm extracts as they are dependably uniform and this is not true of all of the extract products available. I use this mostly externally, because I take internal capsules of formulas (Dr. Christopher Complete Tissue & Bone) which also contain Lobelia for skeletal maintenance, but as a weekly regime, because of my age and the physical labor I do daily, I do use this in tea (a few drops daily) along with Ruta Graveolens - another Herb Pharm extract. These have relieved for me lung issues, nerve and other pain issues, bronchitis is totally gone, foot cramps at night are gone, injuries treated externally with drops of lobelia fade away, and my neighbors MIGRAINES are gone from using it as well. Named after noted French botanist Mattias del Lobel, Lobelia has anti-spasmodic, anti-asthmatic and expectorant properties. It works both as a stimulant and relaxant on the nerves. When used with other herbs in small doses, it works as a stimulant (2). When used in larger doses, it works as a relaxant. Its main ingredients are isolobelanine and lobeline.

Not sure how much I can say here in my review without sounding like I'm giving out medical advice. So I'll be careful. Lobelia tincture is something I grew up with. It works topically on the chest for congestion and internally as well. You have to be careful with internal dosing as it just takes a few drops under the tongue to quell a cough or trigger the expulsion of trapped mucus. Traditionally, Lobelia tincture is made with vinegar but it doesn't last as long and the vinegar can make the rubber dropper "melt" over time. This alcohol based tincture doesn't do that and alcohol is absolutely as effective as the vinegar option, in my humble opinion. You can also use Lobelia tincture to rub on sprains or inflammation. But I normally keep it around for the cold and flu season as that's when it works its "magic." Such a GREAT herb and Herb Pharm is a reliable company to purchase from.

This product is amazing! I know reviews say it taste bad, but you are probably doing it wrong. I quit smoking cigarettes 7 years ago. Then picked up vaping the last 3 years. I’ve been an autoimmune patient for 15 years, and I’ve been hospitalized 5 times this year with no answers but it has to do with my GI tract. I’ve been sick every day for a year in a half and I wanted to kick the vape. It’s expensive. I’m already sick, so it didn’t help the cause. But on day one I noticed a difference. Day 3, don’t even think about the vape. I put it in my coffee. And I put it in my Gatorade. Or Hot tea. If you put any form of a Tincture in water- of COURSE it’s going to be nasty. Pretty simple. I had a really bad craving on day 2, and put it under my tongue. Taste good? No, it’s not supposed too. Clear my crave? You bet! And my immune system is feeling better than ever considering I’m still sick and still doing inpatient and outpatient testing. It’s taken an edge off that as well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND- will buy again.

Potent stuff, very effective.
