    Pleurisy Root Cut

    Asclepias tuberosa

    Form: Cut

    Product description

    Pleurisy root is used the world over as a medicinal herb. You'll find it used to treat respiratory issues such as coughing, bronchitis and influenza. Above the soil, the plant is part of the milkweed family and is referred to as a butterfly weed. Its name also comes from the flower's ability to attract the insect with its heavy production of nectar.

    If you're looking to buy pleurisy root cut, or in powdered form, we'd love to help. Call us, or email today to find about more about our stock and supply.

    The medicinal uses of the root are all to do with easing breathing

    The plant’s name is rooted in its medicinal history, with it originally being used to ease pain in those suffering from pleurisy. Sources indicate that the root’s properties aid expectoration – it helps clear your lungs through helping you cough up phlegm. It also helps aid any inflammation and can act as a calming remedy for respiratory pain, much like other medicinal herbs.
