For generations, chicory has been used in the treatment of many health conditions, including bronchitis. This herb is particularly important for bronchitis because of its expectorant properties, meaning that it can help the body eliminate the mucus and phlegm that builds up in the respiratory tracts. This can prevent the bacteria or viruses from growing and spreading in that ideal environment, thus boosting the immune system and ensuring that you can breathe properly. Dry chicory root can be consumed for this ailment, and is popularly mixed with honey to further reduce inflammation.
