Breathizen Ingredients: The Five Botanicals and What Research Shows
The sales page names five Breathizen ingredients: mullein leaf extract 10:1, ginger root extract, bromelain powder, organic lemon extract and organic Cordyceps militaris fruit extract. No Supplement Facts panel was published, so no amounts are known. Human evidence for breathing is thin: traditional use for mullein and small add-on sinusitis trials for bromelain.

Missing numbers
Why are there no milligrams listed for Breathizen?
Because no Supplement Facts panel has been published. The pack shots show only the front label, and the sales page lists names without amounts.
U.S. rules say a supplement label must carry that panel, with each dietary ingredient and its amount, or a named blend with its total weight (FDA, Labeling guide). Your bottle should have one. Until we can read it, every amount on our pages says "not published."
You cannot see how much of each ingredient 4 pumps hold. You cannot see the carrier liquid or any preservatives. And you cannot compare the spray with study amounts.
See what the bottle shows on the product label guide.
Side by side
How do Breathizen ingredients compare with research amounts?
Listed position, the Breathizen amount (unknown) and the amounts researchers actually used.
| Ingredient | Listed | Per daily dose | Amount used in research | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mullein Leaf Extract 10:1 | 1 of 5 | Not published | No established dose; classical use 3-4 g of herb a day (RxList, Mullein) (Drugs.com, Mullein) (EMA, Mullein flower) | Traditional use only |
| Ginger Root Extract | 2 of 5 | Not published | About 1-2 g single doses up to 2,500 mg a day (not for breathing) (NCCIH, Ginger) (MSKCC, Ginger) (RxList, Ginger) | Insufficient for breathing |
| Bromelain Powder | 3 of 5 | Not published | No established dose; used alongside standard care in sinusitis trials (NCCIH, Bromelain) (MSKCC, Bromelain) (RxList, Bromelain) (Guo et al., 2006) (Leelakanok et al., 2023) | Limited (sinusitis) |
| Organic Lemon Extract | 4 of 5 | Not published | No studied dose for breathing; vitamin C RDA is 75-90 mg (21 CFR 182.20) (ODS, Vitamin C) | None for breathing |
| Organic Cordyceps militaris Fruit Extract | 5 of 5 | Not published | 1-12 g a day for 1-16 weeks in exercise studies (MSKCC, Cordyceps) (RxList, Cordyceps) (Jędrejko et al., 2026) | Inconsistent (exercise) |
Research amounts come from single-ingredient studies. None tested a mouth spray.
Plain terms
What does mullein leaf extract 10:1 mean?
It means about 10 parts of dried mullein leaf went in to make 1 part of finished extract. The ratio describes how concentrated the extract is, not how much of it is in the bottle.
| It tells you | Roughly 10 g of leaf was used for every 1 g of extract |
|---|---|
| It does not tell you | How many milligrams of extract are in 4 pumps |
| It does not tell you | Which plant compounds were kept or lost in the process |
| Why it matters | A strong ratio with a tiny amount can still mean very little leaf per dose |
Classical herbal use was 3 to 4 g of mullein a day (Drugs.com, Mullein). Without the Breathizen amount, nobody can turn 10:1 into a leaf equivalent. The European monograph also covers the flower, not the leaf (EMA, Mullein flower).

Order nowEvidence meter
Which Breathizen ingredient has the strongest evidence?
Bromelain, and only modestly. Scores rate each ingredient on its own, from our sources.
Bromelain's score comes from three small add-on sinusitis trials (Guo et al., 2006). Mullein rests on tradition. Lemon is mostly flavor.
Clearing up confusion
Why do some websites call it a 3 ingredient formula or drops?
They are wrong. The sales page names five ingredients and sells Breathizen as an oral spray taken in pumps.
Brand search results are full of copied pages and press releases. One calls it a "3 ingredient respiratory wellness spray." Others say "drops." Neither matches the official list.
- Five ingredients, in the order shown above
- Oral spray: 4 pumps once a day
- No amounts for any of the five
One wrinkle: the brand's art shows a dropper-style cap. Follow the bottle you receive.
Our take
Breathizen ingredients: strengths and gaps
Strengths
- Five well-known botanicals, each named in full
- Bromelain has small trials in sinus swelling
- Lemon is recognized as safe as a flavoring (21 CFR 182.20)
Gaps
- No amounts, so no way to check doses
- No trial of the Breathizen formula itself
- Carrier liquid and other ingredients not published
- Bromelain is a pineapple allergy concern
Ginger, bromelain and cordyceps may raise bleeding risk with blood thinners (MSKCC, Ginger) (MSKCC, Bromelain) (MSKCC, Cordyceps). Read the side effects first.
FAQ
Breathizen ingredients FAQ
What are the five ingredients in Breathizen?
Mullein leaf extract 10:1, ginger root extract, bromelain powder, organic lemon extract and organic Cordyceps militaris fruit extract. That is the full sales page list. It gives no amounts and no other ingredients.
Why are no milligrams listed on Breathizen?
No Supplement Facts panel has been published, and that panel is where amounts appear. The sales page gives ingredient names only. Federal labeling rules call for amounts or a blend total on the bottle (FDA, Labeling guide), so check the back of the bottle you receive.
Why do some websites call Breathizen a 3 ingredient spray?
They repeat a wrong description. The sales page lists five ingredients, not three, and sells an oral spray, not drops. Many brand search results are reposted press releases, so trust the official list and your bottle's label.
What does 10:1 mean on mullein leaf extract?
Roughly 10 parts of dried leaf were used to make 1 part of extract. It shows strength, not quantity. Without the amount per dose, which Breathizen does not publish, the ratio cannot tell you how much mullein you get.
Which Breathizen ingredient has the most research?
Bromelain has the most, but it is still limited. Small trials tested it alongside standard care in acute sinusitis, with encouraging but modest results (Guo et al., 2006). Cordyceps has small exercise studies, while mullein, ginger and lemon have no solid human data for breathing.
Are Breathizen ingredients organic?
Two of the five are labeled organic: the lemon extract and the Cordyceps militaris extract. Mullein, ginger and bromelain carry no organic claim. No certifier is named, so ask the order desk if that matters to you.
Does Breathizen list other ingredients like flavors or preservatives?
No. Other ingredients are not published anywhere we can see, so the liquid base and any flavors or preservatives are unknown. If you have allergies, read the full label on your bottle before the first dose.
