Breathless and left exhausted is what asthma attacks do to me. I have tried may home remedies to relieve them naturally from honey to black pepper on a banana, but none of them work well. Recently I was having severe asthma attacks and not even my prescription asthma medication was working. I ended up doing a bit of research online and came across licorice as an herbal remedy for relieving severe asthma attacks. Soon after, I had my boyfriend help me a medicinal cup of licorice root herbal tea with cinnamon and shortly after, I began sipping it down. Within ten minutes of sipping on the licorice root herbal tea with cinnamon, I began breathing easier and was able to rest comfortably.

To my surprise, this herbal remedy worked outstandingly well and I felt the need to share it with all of you asthma sufferers looking for relief of an asthma attack when all other medications and remedies seem to fail you as well.

You may also be able to find these two herbs at your local herbal shop or whole food store as well, but again make sure they are pure and organic so you know for sure they have the medicinal properties you need to relieve your asthma attack successfully.

Cinnamon is added to the tea because it has medicinal properties that can help fight exhaustion and provide the body with antioxidants need to kill harmful bacterial, fungal and viral infections naturally. Just breathing in the warm aroma of cinnamon alone helps open up my airways, which I love as well.

Next, boil the herbs and water on the stove on medium heat for about fifteen to twenty minutes too really help draw out the medicinal properties. After, remove the herbal from the stove, pour some into a mug, and begin breathing in the steam coming out of the mug. Then, begin sipping on the tea until it is gone and your asthma is relieved. Again, for me I began feeling relief in ten minutes, but it may take less or more time for you.

Yes, licorice root can cause high blood pressure and rapid heart beat in some people. It can even make you feel panicky if you have too much, which I have experienced. Cinnamon can cause the blood sugar levels to become unbalanced and even make you hungry. Overall, when the herbal tea is sipped on a couple cups each day no side effects really occur because the herbs are safe to use in moderation.
