Icelandic moss, Cetraria islandica L. [Fam. Parmeliaceae], has traditionally been used as a food and health in both Europe and North America. The polysaccharides in the lichen (plant-fungus partnership) form a moist and soothing layer over the mucous membranes of the mouth, throat, and chest making it a potential way to help support symptoms of mouth and throat infections and colds, coughs, coughs, and acute breathing disorders.

Icelandic Moss can be used to help support inflammation and dryness of the pharyngeal mucosa in naturopathy for many years. The necessary concentration of Icelandic Moss and its therapeutic effectiveness were analyzed in a randomized- controlled clinical study with sixty-one patients who recently underwent nasal surgery. The patients suffered especially from dryness and inflammation due to breathing only through the mouth while the nose was permanently closed by a nasal package. Coating, dryness, and inflammation of the mucosa, lymph nodes, tongue, the tolerance of the product, and symptoms like hoarseness and sore throat were documented. Icelandic moss lozenges were given from the first to the fifth day after the operation. Treatment with Icelandic moss directly reduced all pathological symptoms. It can be recommended after nasal surgery, after intubation and for simple infections of the throat.

It can also be tried to help support kidney and bladder problems, pulmonary complaints, as a restorative, and as a topical for infected wounds. Recent studies found compounds in Icelandic moss that are potential supporters for irritations, abnormal growths and immunity deficiencies. University of Illinois scientists discovered compounds from Iceland moss that inhibit an enzyme that causes immunity reduction. Conventional drugs including AZT do the same thing, however these drugs are toxic. Conversely, the active constituents in Icelandic moss have been shown in laboratory studies to be nontoxic to cells.

Iceland moss, or Iceland lichen as it is also called, has demulcent, pectoral, anti-emetic, and nutritive tonic properties. It has been used, health-wise, for lung weakness and other upper-respiratory ailments, especially those associated with degenerative wasting. It has sometimes been combined in a blended syrup or decoction with Irish moss and comfrey root. Sweet and slightly bland tasting Icelandic moss affects the lungs and stomach and contains mucins, bitter fumaric acids, usnic acids, some iodine, and polysaccharides.
