Foods to Cleanse Your Lungs?

As the old saying goes you are what you eat. So if you are McDonalds and Burger King then your diet may need some help especially if you want to cleanse your lungs.

Lung cleansing is very important if you have been smoking for a number of years you see as the insides of your lungs are thick with black sticky tar that hoard chemicals and toxins that are contained within cigarettes and the smoke you inhale. As is suggested by the title to this lens you can improve your lungs recovery from smoking by eating certain types of foods that will aid in lung repair and getting rid of the tar and toxic crap that is filling your lungs.

A few important foods to add to your diet are as follows:

Cleanse Your Lungs With These Super Foods

Garlic

As the photo above hints at, garlic is an amazing food to help with cleaning your lungs and detoxing them of all the nasty stuff inside. Garlic has been used for thousands of years as a natural super food in many cultures and of course it tastes great too.

While you can get garlic oil pills and so forth I recommend that you use fresh garlic and add it to your food liberally for at least one meal a day. Cut it up into tiny pieces and fry them lightly with many foods and you will see some benefits.

There are a number of benefits to this: Garlic is antibacterial, helps to sterilize your bronchial airways and also helps you cough up mucus and tar that are inhibiting breathing and causing harm.

Ginger

Ginger is another common herb that you can add to your food to give yourself a lung detox advantage. Ginger helps with the body's circulation which can be effected by poor lungs and will also help to make you feel less nauseous.

It has been documented to help with bronchitis, colds and also helps with good digestion which will make your overall health better and your immune system stronger.

Chili

Hot and spicy foods such as chili are a great addiction to your meals as well. These spices have an effect on your body which liquefies mucus in your respiratory system making it easier to flush out. This will remove a lot of tar and chemicals that are trapped in this mucus. IT is unpleasant to cough this stuff up but it really does help your lungs detox a great deal.

Fresh Foods

To detoxify lungs with food you must also eat an overall better diet. Processed foods while cheap, easy and convenient are a bane on your body's health. the preservatives, chemicals and fats in these foods cause serious problems for your immune system, blood sugar level and other parts of your body which all place pressure on an already unhealthy set of lungs.

It is better to buy and eat fresh fruit and vegetables as well as meats and stop buying the packaged, processed crap that we so often fall prey to. This helps your entire body and you will notice a remarkable difference to your lungs too.

How to Cleanse Your Lungs Further

Just changing your eating habits will help you to achieve cleaner, healthier lungs but there is a lot more to it that that especially if you are still struggling with the demons of nicotine addiction.

A full lung detoxification regime is often needed if you have been smoking for some time to really clear out the tar and gunk from your lungs. Without concerted action on your behalf this stuff that can cause so many problems like bronchitis, infection and lung cancer of course will not go away on its own. It lives in your lungs clogging your airways and destroying your lungs every day.

A good lung detox can help to put a stop to this though and in many cases has been known to help people quit smoking in the same fell swoop.
