Secret Mullein Tea Benefits You Didn’t Know About

In some areas, Mullein is regarded as a weed, and it grows quite abundantly and vigorously. It often grows in disturbed or bare ground, and it can be seen as a plant that is growing to restore the bare land. It has a strong and large root, which creates space in the hard ground and draws up many nutrients that can eventually be returned to the soil when the plant dies back. This information also signifies one of the herbal benefits of Mullein, which is its use as a nutritive.

Mullein is a herb that is steeped in examples of historical uses, and it has been utilised by humans for hundreds, if not thousands, of years. Every part of the plant has nuanced healing uses. The woolly leaves are most commonly used for respiratory system healing, the butter-yellow flowers for earaches, the potent roots as a nerve pain reliever, and so much more.

In this article, you will learn most specifically about the many Mullein leaf benefits, and its common as well as lesser-known uses when prepared as a tea. You will also receive all the details of a really fun, delicious, and healing Mullein tea preparation, a medicinal milky Mullein Bubble tea.

Benefits of Mullein Leaf

The energetic effects of Mullein leaves on your body will typically be cooling, relaxing, and moistening.

Mullein leaf is packed with powerful benefits… It works as a natural expectorant, helping to loosen and clear mucus from your lungs. Its soothing mucilage makes it a gentle demulcent, while its mild diuretic effect supports the body’s natural detox through urination. Mullein also eases inflammation, tones tissues, relaxes muscle spasms, and calms the nervous system. On top of that, it’s rich in nutrients, has antibacterial and antiviral properties (fighting off pathogens like Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae), and even helps protect your liver from damage.

Some of its affinities include the respiratory system, musculoskeletal system, digestive system, mucosal membranes, and skin. The subtle presence or special potency of Mullein is comforting, soothing, softening, and protective.

But here’s the thing… most people have no idea what Mullein can really do — or any healing plant, for that matter. And that’s not by accident. The truth is, Big Pharma doesn’t want you to know. Why would they? If you had access to this kind of healing knowledge — if you knew how to treat your body naturally, from the inside out — you wouldn’t need their overpriced, side-effect-ridden pills anymore.

That’s why I keep this book close: it’s a modern-day field guide to forgotten remedies, packed with 250+ healing recipes using plants like Mullein. It’s everything your grandmother might’ve passed down… if the pharmaceutical industry hadn’t buried it all.

These unique energetics, herbal actions, affinities, and special potency are the secret to the benefits of Mullein tea. This preparation can be used for the following benefits or as a treatment for the following:

• Cough remedy, especially for dry, inflamed, and spasmodic coughing.
• Treating respiratory illnesses and issues from common colds and flu to bronchitis, tuberculosis, asthma, and even the respiratory effects of COVID.
• For general lung healing and health.
• As a nutrient as it is said to be especially high in calcium and magnesium.
• As a mild sedative.
• Treating hemorrhoids and diarrhea.
• For musculoskeletal issues, joints, bones, ligaments, and cartilage healing and health (combine with Mullein roots for extra strong effects here).
• Treating urinary tract Inflammation and digestive inflammation.
• Treating viral and bacterial infections.
• As part of the treatment of a stagnant lymphatic system.
• Treating skin infections and wounds (infusion or poultice topically applied).

When making the Mullein Bubble tea, you can work with the leaf for the benefits above, but you could also choose to include Mullein flowers or roots along with or in place of the leaves if those offer more of the specific benefits you’re seeking.

Let’s be real… do you actually believe popping a pill or two is going to fix chronic coughing? Or ease the pain of inflamed joints? Or undo the damage in your lungs after years of neglect?

Of course not.

When you’re dealing with real health issues — like respiratory infections, stubborn inflammation, nerve pain, or digestive chaos — you need more than a quick fix. You need a plan. One that tells you exactly what to avoid, what to eat, and what to take in the morning, at noon, and again before bed.

That’s exactly what this holistic book I found gives you.

It’s a full wellness protocol, built around nature. It covers every system in your body — from gut to brain to skin — and it’s especially powerful if you’re looking to fight inflammation, fatigue, or pain the right way. No pills. No prescriptions. Just plants.

🌿 If you’re serious about healing naturally, this is the guide you need on your shelf.

You’re Not Using Mullein to Its Full Potential

💨 What Happens If You Smoke Mullein?

I know it sounds strange, but smoking mullein is one of the oldest and most effective ways to support your lungs. When the dried leaves burn, they release a relaxing vapor that helps kill germs, ease inflammation, and dislodge mucus so you can breathe deeper. It’s especially comforting during the cold season or when you’re feeling congested and foggy. It may feel unconventional, but it works better than anything I’ve tried from the pharmacy.

👣 The Strange Thing That Happens When You Put a Mullein Leaf in Your Shoe

This one completely caught me off guard… but it’s genius. If you’ve ever had sore, inflamed, or heavy legs — or you’re about to go for a long walk — tuck a soft mullein leaf in your shoe. These fuzzy, anti-inflammatory “insoles” draw out toxins like little sponges. Your feet feel lighter, your legs less puffy, and you’ll swear it’s like wearing a secret detox patch.

📺 How I Learned These “Weird” Mullein Remedies

I didn’t just make these up — I learned them from an herbalist’s video guide that walks you through the correct way to prepare remedies like these. It explains exactly how to do it, why it works, and even what mistakes to avoid so you don’t waste precious herbs. If you want to unlock mullein’s full healing potential (and finally feel confident making herbal remedies at home), you’ll find the complete step-by-step video right here.

DIY Mullein Medicinal Milky Bubble Tea

The concept or origins of bubble tea, also referred to as boba or tapioca pearls, are credited to the traditional tea shops of Taiwan; it is said to have first appeared in the 1980s.

Making bubble tea from scratch takes some effort so be ready to be patient. This is an “enjoy the process“, “labour of love“ type of recipe, and it will be well worth your efforts, for a tasty and beneficial preparation will be your reward.

Ingredients

• 1 Tablespoon + ½ Cup tapioca starch
• 4 Tablespoons dried Mullein leaves
• 2 tablespoons coconut sugar
• ¼ Cup + 1 ½ Cup water
• 1 Cup plant-based milk

Step by Step Instructions

1. Steep 3 tbsp of mullein leaf in 1½ cups hot water (1+ hour), and 1 tbsp in ¼ cup water (15–20 mins).
2. Strain the smaller infusion, pour into a pot, and mix with 1 tbsp coconut sugar.
3. Warm gently, then stir in 1 tbsp tapioca flour until it thickens slightly.
4. Off heat, add ½ cup tapioca starch and knead into a smooth dough.
5. Roll the dough into tiny pearls, and coat with dry starch.
6. Boil pearls for 20 minutes, then let sit in hot water for another 10.
7. Strain and mix with 1 tbsp coconut sugar.
8. Add the pearls to a glass, pour in the strong mullein infusion and your preferred plant-based milk.
9. Stir and enjoy your soothing, healing Mullein Bubble Tea!

Suggested Use

This is a filling and large drink which is generally considered safe to enjoy as you wish in reasonable quantities. According to this recipe, 1 serving of this tea daily during the time you are working with Mullein will be perfect.

This is a subtle sweet tea, as we don’t want to overpower the taste of the herbs or have too much sugar.

Make sure to strain mullein tea well using a fine filter — its tiny hairs can irritate the throat. Always be cautious where you harvest it from, as mullein may absorb heavy metals from polluted soil. It’s generally safe, even for kids in small doses, but there’s not enough research to confirm safety during pregnancy or breastfeeding. And as always, if you’re on medication or have a chronic condition, check for possible contraindications and listen to your body.
