To treat respiratory problems  (asthma, shortness of breath or infections) you can use plants alongside your treatment. Medicinal plants have been used for this purpose since the dawn of time.

Here are 6 plants to cleanse your lungs and fight asthma:

1 – GINGER

  • Possessing anti-inflammatory and relaxing properties, ginger helps  reduce inflammation  in the respiratory tract. Its relaxing properties also serve to soothe the muscles, which has a positive effect on asthma.
