The name of this herb means 'cough stopper' and has been used for that very reason for millennia. Coltsfoot clears mucous from the lungs, soothes lung tissue and stops wheezing.
Coltsfoot contains small amounts of zinc; this has resulted in its restriction in Australia, therefore COLTSFOOT IS NOT SOLD FOR INTERNAL CONSUMPTION.
Legally, coltsfoot cannot be taken as a tea (despite millennia of safe use) but it can be smoked, which surprisingly still works wonders. Preparation: Outside of Australia, coltsfoot can be taken as a tea. In Australia, mix with tobacco to minimise negative effects of the tobacco, or smoke small amounts over the day for coughs.
