Lung is an important respiratory organ of human body, which transforms and exchanges gas between human body and the outside world, and provides sufficient oxygen supply for various functions of human body. At the same time, the lung is also a very fragile organ. The lung is directly connected with the nose and mouth, so it is easy to be in indirect contact with the outside world, and foreign impurities and harmful substances are easy to invade the lung. In order to live a long and healthy life, we should pay attention to maintaining our lungs. In daily life, we can protect the health of the lungs from these five aspects, improve the health value of the lungs, and lay the foundation for health and longevity.

1. Balanced diet

Eat less spicy and greasy food in daily life, which will not only cause a certain burden on the stomach, but also have a certain impact on the lungs. Eat more fresh vegetables, fruits and nuts rich in vitamins, dietary fiber, protein, etc. to supplement enough nutrition for the lungs and make them fully self-repair.

Step 2 get rid of bad habits

With the accelerated pace of modern life, people are more likely to have bad habits such as smoking, drinking and staying up late under pressure, among which smoking is the most harmful habit to the lungs. According to relevant scientific research, cigarettes contain more than 7,000 kinds of chemicals, and there are hundreds of harmful substances, including 69 carcinogens. When smoking, tiny particles in the smoke will enter the body and deposit on the respiratory mucosa, and even some tiny substances will penetrate the alveoli and enter the blood, damaging the lungs and surrounding tissues, seriously damaging lung function, leading to chronic diseases such as pharyngitis, bronchitis and pneumonia. Smoking is a temporary pleasure, but it comes at the expense of personal health. If you want to keep your lungs healthy and protect your health, you might as well start by quitting smoking.

3. Keep moderate exercise

Keeping proper exercise every day can protect lung function and care for lung health. For example, chest expansion exercise can effectively exercise lung capacity, open your arms as much as possible, and use abdominal breathing to expand lung capacity. At the same time, chest enlargement can dredge the lung meridian, relax the surrounding muscle tissue, promote blood circulation in the lungs and help the lungs discharge alveolar impurities. Exercise for 20-30 minutes every day can effectively improve the ability of cardiopulmonary support.

4. Keep a happy mood

"Smile for ten years" means that a happy mood will make people younger, and at the same time, smiling is also beneficial to the health of our lungs. When smiling, the lungs expand, and at the same time, through deep breathing, the respiratory tract will be cleaned unconsciously, which is conducive to lung cleaning and better care for lung health.

5. Regular physical examination

Some people do not pay attention to cough, spitting, chest pain and other symptoms frequently, and even drag them to the hospital for examination. Finally, it was found that the disease was late, difficult to recover, and even paid the price of life. Therefore, when our body frequently appears some kind of early warning, we should pay attention to it and go to a regular hospital for examination in time. Even if there is no certain disease, we should go to the hospital regularly for routine physical examination, preferably once a year.

Protect lung health, don't wait, don't delay. In daily life, pay attention to the influence of small details in life on our human health. At the same time, take part in more outdoor sports, breathe more fresh air and do more lung washing trips.
