Why do you get pulmonary nodules/bronchiectasis/COPD?
People's lungs are getting worse and worse with age, traditional Chinese medicine says, the lungs are canopy, for the delicate dirt, not only smoking, polluted gas will cause the lungs to deteriorate, bad living habits will also make the lungs worse and worse.
In addition, the following four small bad habits in life are also slowly eroding your lung health!
1. Greedy for cold drinks, hurting yang and consuming gas:
Long-term diet will not only damage the spleen and stomach yang, but also affect the lungs, resulting in insufficient lung qi, susceptibility to colds, and reducing lung resistance.
2. Staying up late hurts yin, and the lungs are uneasy:
When the lung meridian is ordered to be ugly, at this time, you should sleep deeply to nourish yin and blood and replenish lung qi. Staying up late will consume yin fluid, lose lung nourishment, and easily cause dry cough and dry skin.
3. The air conditioner blows for a long time and closes the choke:
The temperature difference between the inside and outside of the air-conditioned room is large, and the air is dry and not circulating, which is easy to make the lungs depressed, and the symptoms such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, and cough appear.
Fourth, sadness and sadness, emotional distress:
In traditional Chinese medicine, there is a saying that "the five organs correspond to the five aspirations", and the lungs are worried about the will. Excessive sadness and anxiety will lead to the dissipation of lung qi, poor qi, chest tightness, shortness of breath, cough and other pathological manifestations.
Therefore, if you don't want to have lung problems, you must ensure good living habits. Especially for patients over the age of 45, it is necessary to pay more attention to the fact that in order to have better lungs, in addition to maintaining good living habits, they also need to take the initiative to nourish their lungs.
Today, I will share with you 3 tips for nourishing lungs without spending money, to help you easily raise young lungs, so that lung diseases do not dare to run rampant!

A cup of hot water not only warms up the body but also moistens the lungs. The use of water vapor directly acts on the respiratory tract, which can moisturize the lungs and relieve dryness. This method is simple and easy to do, and the effect is better if done in the morning and evening.
2. Active coughing, detoxification and beauty.
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes that "righteousness is stored in the body, and evil cannot be done". Active coughing is a way for the body to detoxify itself, expelling foul air from the respiratory tract and lungs through coughing, keeping the lungs clean and reducing the occurrence of diseases. At the same time, opening windows for ventilation and breathing fresh air is also an effective means to improve lung immunity.

Laughter is not only an expression of emotions, but also a good prescription for health. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "laughter leads to qi and ambition", and laughter can promote lung qi, promote qi and blood circulation, and enhance lung function. Laughing often not only makes people feel happy, but also a kind of gentle care for the lungs.
