Lungs are vital in helping to maintain normal body operations. The lungs are responsible for oxygenating the blood, which then circulates to the rest of the body. Maintaining healthy lungs can help keep your entire body healthy. In order to keep your lungs healthy it is best to avoid things that negatively affect them. The three most harmful things for our lungs are smoking, dust, and excessive cold, but there are a number of other factors which can also be a problem for lung health, such as toxins, pollutants and illnesses like asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and pneumonia. Maintaining healthy lungs requires exercise and a healthy diet that provides vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients.

Smoking, Dust & Cold
Cigarette smoke that enters your lungs can cause damage very quickly. Second-hand smoke is also very dangerous. Damage occurs whenever the concentration of smoke in your lungs is higher than the lung’s tolerance level. Avoiding or stopping smoking as soon as you can is critical to keeping your lungs healthy. Dust can damage your lungs in a similar way to cigarette smoke. Inhaling more dust than your lungs can deal with can make breathing harder and damage your lungs. Dust from dry soil is harmful but dust from insecticides, herbicides, and pesticides is much more dangerous to lung health. Excessive cold can also harm the lungs. The lungs are very sensitive organs and are not made to deal with excessive cold. When your lungs are exposed to an excessive amount of cold they become susceptible to developing lung illnesses such as pneumonia and bronchitis.
Vitamins & Coenzyme Q10
Vitamin A, C, and E are vitamins that boost the immune system and protect the lungs from illness. Vitamin A can also remove bacteria from the lungs and fight against disease, while vitamin E protects against toxins, pollutants, and infections. Vitamin C protects against viruses and disease, and is needed for collagen production and for repairing damaged tissues. Both vitamin C and E are antioxidants that can combat free radicals in the lungs. Coenzyme Q10 can also support immune function and protect the lungs from harmful elements. A versatile nutrient, coenzyme Q10 improves oxygen transportation to the organs, supports cell production, and lowers the risk of developing lung disease.
