About: Elecampane (Inula helenium) is cultivated with organic methods on our micro-farm in beautiful Mount Shasta, CA. In autumn, after the frost, we carefully dig elecampane roots from the soil, pruning the tap roots and tincturing fresh in organic cane spirits. The root crowns are replanted and the cycle begins anew.
Elecampane root is a premier herb for supporting the lungs. It has excellent antiseptic and expectorant action and can aid bronchial ailments, asthma and bronchitis. Elecampane root is often indicated for persistent coughs with copious phlegm. It is a warming, stimulating aromatic herb and can greatly fortify the lungs and weakened digestion, clearing phlegm from both the lungs and digestive organs. Used in small doses over time, Elecampane is a rejuvenating lung tonic and can support the healing of damaged lung tissue.
