A month or so went by and I stopped by their home and made 2 gallons more for him, 3 or 4 months later he put his oxygen bottle aside......!! he could breathe just fine..... (just a little side note, Margret would take a quart ball jar of the tea to work for the older ladies who worked in the kitchen cuz it gave them energy and the younger girls who she said were lazy.... she'd give them a tablespoon when they complained of menstrual cramps and in a few minutes she said they'd be running around like rabbits!)

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 tablespoons 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 the 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, and 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...
Recipe for Jack's Herbal Lung Healing Tea
Due to the challenges some people face in finding mullein seed pods, this revised recipe uses mullein leaves instead, which are easier to obtain, affordable, and have been used by herbalists for centuries to heal lungs.
Ingredients
1 cup mullein leaf
¼ cup hyssop leaf
1 tablespoon lobelia leaf
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
Instructions
Combine the herbal powders and store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
To prepare the tea, pour 3 cups of warm water over 1 tablespoon of the herb mixture and let it steep for an hour.
Strain the tea through a coffee filter to remove any mullein leaf hairs, which can cause irritation.
Add 1 tablespoon (or less) of raw honey and 1 teaspoon of raw, organic apple cider vinegar to the tea.
Consume 1 cup of tea in the morning, another cup in the afternoon, and a final cup in the evening.
Important Notes
Lobelia should never be boiled.
It is recommended to use organic herbs from a trusted source. Buying in bulk and storing them properly will ensure you have enough herbs for a long time.
Regular use of lobelia can deter smoking, and lobelia capsules are sometimes taken by smokers to help them quit.
Hyssop and lobelia should not be used by pregnant women. However, the remaining ingredients still provide lung-healing benefits.
If the tea causes discomfort, reduce the amount you drink, take a break, or stop using it altogether.
If the tea works well for you, there is no harm in increasing the amount you drink, as long as it is suitable for your specific health situation.
If the tea is too spicy, reduce the amount of cayenne pepper.
How Jack's Herbal Formula Helps Lung Issues
Mullein Leaf
Mullein has been used for centuries by herbalists for its lung-healing properties. It is known to soothe irritated lung tissue, reduce inflammation, and help loosen and expel mucus. This makes it an ideal herb for treating emphysema and other lung issues, as it can help improve lung function and alleviate respiratory symptoms.
Hyssop Leaf
Hyssop is a powerful expectorant that helps remove mucus from the lungs and airways. It also has antiviral and antibacterial properties, effectively treating respiratory infections. By clearing mucus and combating infections, hyssop can improve lung health and relieve emphysema sufferers.
Lobelia Leaf
Lobelia is known to relax the muscles in the bronchial tubes, allowing for easier breathing. It also acts as an expectorant, helping to clear mucus from the lungs. Additionally, lobelia can help deter smoking, which is beneficial for those with emphysema as it reduces exposure to harmful tobacco smoke.
Cayenne Pepper
Cayenne pepper contains capsaicin, which has anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. In lung health, cayenne can help improve blood circulation, reduce inflammation in the respiratory system, and stimulate mucus clearance. Doing so supports lung function and can provide relief for those with emphysema and other respiratory issues.
