Hi Queeny, I live in the UK and I've never heard of breathing tea. I'll try our Health Store (Holland & Barratt) in my Town Centre and give it a go. If it's available in the UK, Holland & Barratt will stock it. Thanks for that tip.
I get breathing tea from the health store it really helps.
My doctor put me on carbosetine tablets they thin the mucus down and help to bring it up
I never smoked either. I have had asthma for years then was diagnosed with COPD. Mucinex is recommended for mucus. Good luck and God Bless
