Your lungs work tirelessly to provide oxygen and remove carbon dioxide, but they can be compromised by pollutants, smoke, and bacteria. Cleansing your lungs helps them function more efficiently.
- Steam Therapy: Inhaling steam infused with essential oils like eucalyptus can open airways, loosen mucus, and help clear bacteria from your lungs.
- Ginger Tea: Ginger has anti-inflammatory properties that help clear toxins from the lungs and reduce inflammation caused by pollutants. Boil fresh ginger in water and enjoy as tea.
- Peppermint: The menthol in peppermint soothes the respiratory tract, making it easier to breathe. Drinking peppermint tea or using peppermint oil in a diffuser can support lung health.
- Deep Breathing Exercises: Practicing deep breathing improves lung capacity and helps expel toxins from the respiratory system. Try diaphragmatic or pursed-lip breathing exercises daily.
