Lobelia Herb Cut 75g

Pharma Germania Natural Products Lobelia Herb Cut contains dried Lobelia inflata, commonly known as Lobelia or Indian Tobacco.

Lobelia has a long history in Western herbal medicine, particularly in traditional respiratory preparations. It was historically used as an antispasmodic and expectorant herb to support mucus clearance and comfortable respiratory function.

The herb contains several naturally occurring piperidine alkaloids, of which lobeline is the best known. Lobeline has pharmacological activity and is responsible for both Lobelia’s historical applications and many of its important safety considerations.

Unlike many everyday herbal teas, Lobelia is a potent botanical with a relatively narrow margin between traditionally used quantities and amounts capable of causing adverse effects. Unsupervised internal use is therefore not recommended.

Why Choose Pharma Germania Lobelia Herb Cut?

Lobelia has a distinctive place in traditional Western herbalism because of its historical use in respiratory and antispasmodic preparations.

Its primary recognised constituent, lobeline, interacts with nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and has genuine pharmacological activity. This means Lobelia requires substantially greater caution than a typical culinary or herbal tea ingredient.

Historical use should not be interpreted as evidence that Lobelia can safely treat asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, respiratory infections or other breathing disorders.
