Traditional Yoruba Steam Inhalation Herbs

This is a polyherbal formulation inspired by a traditional Yoruba herbal mix used during the Spanish influenza of 1914 to treat sick patients.

It consists of

Efirin : Occimmum grattisum

Ewe egungun eja: Phyllantus muellerianus

Ewe oruwo: Morinda lucida leaves

And Eucalyptus torrelianna

It is an effective chest and nasal decongestant and is useful for treating flu, asthma, cough, and bronchitis.

Being rich in essential oils, the fragrant steam clears airways, eases breathing, and invigorates the upper body.

It can be used by children and adults.
