What is it?:

Platycodon root comes from the Platycodon grandiflorus plant (Balloon Flower) and is considered one of the most essential herbs for treating Lung disorders. Neutral in temperature, it can successfully treat Lung issues caused by either heat or cold depending on the herbs with which it is combined in formula.

Clinically it is most commonly used to address the presentations of cough with profuse sputum, sore throat, and hoarseness/loss of voice. Furthermore, its action to dispel pus makes it appropriate for use to help drain Lung abscesses.

What is it good for:

  • supports respiratory health
  • helps with wheezing, cough, and hoarseness & loss of voice
  • chest congestion

Traditional Chinese medicine benefits:

  • ventilates the Lung
  • dispels phlegm
  • benefits the throat
  • dispels pus

What else you might like to know:

It is important to understand that Chinese herbs work by restoring balance to the body. This means that you usually have to take an herb or a formula for a longer period of time than you would with pharmaceuticals in order to get results-- usually at least a month, and often times longer than that... it all depends on the individual and the nature of the ailment being addressed.
