What else you might like to know:
This instant beverage contains four main herbs that work together to help control cough and resolve phlegm, so if your cough is productive then this tea may very well be just the thing to help.
This product also contains herbs that help soothe irritation and cough that is secondary to respiratory disorder-- so while it will not address the root causes of various forms of dyspnea (e.g. labored breathing, wheezing, shortness of breath due to bronchial irritation/inflammation), it can provide some short term relief for the secondary symptoms (noted above)... a touch of honey might be a good thing to add your cup of tea as well (as honey is listed in the Chinese medica as "good for the Lung", generally speaking). But do note that this product already contains sugar!
