TRADITIONAL USES

For centuries, cultures around the world have used this herb to treat nasal and respiratory troubles: coughs, runny nose, chest congestion, asthma, whooping cough and even tuberculosis. Four hundred years ago, the British herbalist Nicholas Culpeper claimed that nettle roots or leaves, used in juice or tea, were "safe and sure medicines to open the pipes and passages of the lungs." For many years, Australians have viewed nettle as a good treatment for asthma. Aussies drink the juice of the roots and leaves mixed with honey or sugar, and they firmly believe that it relieves bronchial troubles
