Hyssop is potentially useful as it is both calming and tonic. It has a positive effect when used to treat bronchitis and respiratory infections, especially where there is excessive mucus production. It effectively clears thick and congested phlegm.
As a sedative, hyssop is a useful remedy against asthma in both children and adults, especially where the condition is exacerbated by mucus congestion. Like many herbs with a strong volatile oil, it soothes the digestive tract and can be an effective remedy against indigestion, gas, bloating, and colic.

Infusion- pour a cup of boiling water onto 1–2 tsp of the dried herb and leave to infuse for 10–15 minutes. This can be consumed up to 3 times a day
