There are several herbs that will help.....just google herbal remedies for pneumonia. That being said I use to get bronchitis a few times every year and it would ultimately would lead to walking pneumonia every few years. I finally got some helpful info from a an individual in a health store. Echinacea supreme made by Gaia is absolutely a miracle herb. It is good for colds and more complicated lung problems. It deeply penetrates the lung tissues and helps rebuild the problems colds, bronchitis, and pneumonia cause. Everyone I have ever given this info to has been impressed by this herbal remedy. Also grapefruit extract is very helpful on many of these issues...........they are BOTH quite strong so start out slowly.......perhaps 1/3 dropper......moving toward 1/2 dropper. and starting with perhaps 5 drops of grapefruit extract moving toward 10. herbal pharm also makes a product called super echinacea which is also a very good product. hope that helps
