*** Do Not Quit Smoking! Click Here *** Your lungs are an essential organ that not only helps you breath, but also helps maintain the delicate balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in your body. The lungs are made up of tiny tubules and sacs that inflate when you inhale. In normal healthy lungs, these passageways and sacs expand and collapse to pass oxygen from your lungs to your blood cells where it will be distributed throughout your body. In exchange for oxygen, carbon dioxide is removed from your red blood cells and exhaled from your lungs. However, in the lungs of smokers, the tissue is coated with mucous, smoke, and tar. The small cells in your lungs that help clean up this debris, cilia, can be damaged by smoking. This leads to a buildup of trash that blocks the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. The result is shortness of breath and difficulty breathing. In short, you are suffocating even though you are able to inhale and exhale air. The first step to regaining healthy lung function is to help clear out the debris in your lungs. Start by quitting smoking all together. Your body will try to get rid of the junk naturally by making you cough. Do not fight this cough. You should help your body clear out the mucous by using medication to thin out the mucous which makes it easier to cough out. A good over the counter medicine is Mucinex. Finally, as your body clears out this trash, you will need to help your lung tissue heal with vitamins and plenty of healthy protein for tissue repair.
