Looking for natural ways to clear mucus and improve respiratory health? In this article, Herbal Creations explores the top herbal expectorants that support lung function and soothe coughs—without the side effects of synthetic medicines.
Expectorants are substances that help loosen mucus in the lungs, bronchi, and trachea, making it easier to cough it up and clear the airways.
