Lobelia is a "smart" balancing herb that has, over time, been recommended
for nearly every complaint. Its relaxing, antispasmodic, expectorant qualities make it ideal for
clearing the lungs and lymph system.
"Smart" means that lymph congestion might be cleared to the bowels in strong
individuals or directly to the surface in weaker ones.
Larger doses can bring on nausea which, when the lungs are clearing and
wastes accumulate in the stomach, seems a good idea (unless you are too
weak).
This is cleansing; not a reaction to "poison".
Lobelia is a muscle relaxant.
The liquid extract is used to stop asthma attacks, severe coughing or
convulsions.
It can be mixed l:l with capsicum extract as an "herbal alignment" for back
muscles.
Lobeline is similar to nicotine and is used to reduce the desire for tobacco
while the root of the herb helps to clear the lungs.
