1. Take a deep breath

The lungs control the qi and regulate breathing. Fresh air and turbid air are exchanged in the lungs, and the quality of inhaled gas has a great impact on the function of the lungs. To keep your lungs clear, you must first quit smoking, avoid the harm of secondhand smoke, and do not stay in places with polluted air for a long time. Friends who have the conditions can often go to places with lush vegetation and fresh air, do some exercise, take deep breaths, and expel the turbid air in the body through deliberate deep exhalation.

It is best to take it when warm, twice a day, for breakfast and dinner. It has the effect of relieving cough and asthma. Healthy people can also eat it regularly to strengthen their body and prevent diseases.

3. Treat colds promptly

Many people's pneumonia is caused by untimely or incomplete treatment of colds, or insufficient rest. Therefore, you must rest after a cold, and seek medical attention if you have a severe cough and a high fever.

4. Replenish water in time

The lungs are an open system, with the nasal cavity, trachea and then to the lungs forming the air pathway. The water in the lungs can be lost as the air is expelled. Dry air can more easily take away moisture, causing damage to the lung mucosa and respiratory tract. This is what Chinese medicine says: dryness can easily damage the lungs. Therefore, timely replenishment of water is an important measure to maintain lungs.

5. Take time to exercise in the morning

The best time to nourish the lungs during the day is from 7 to 9 in the morning. It is best to do aerobic exercises such as jogging at this time to strengthen lung function. Walking is the easiest and safest exercise. People with weaker physical fitness can start with a slow walk. Walk 500-1500 meters every day. At the beginning, you can walk at your accustomed speed, then walk at a slightly faster speed. After you adapt, you can gradually increase the exercise time. In addition, going up and down stairs, jogging, Tai Chi and other exercises are also beneficial to lung function.

6. Do more chest expansion exercises

Special attention should be paid to the training of the respiratory system, and abdominal breathing method should be advocated: stretch your arms, expand your chest as much as possible, and then use your abdomen to breathe. This can increase lung capacity and is especially beneficial to the recovery of patients with COPD and emphysema. Don't stay in a warm place all the time, get some cold or hot stimulation appropriately.

7. Beat your back often

Sit upright with your back naturally straight, eyes slightly closed, relaxed, clench your hands into fists, and punch the center and sides of your back 30 times each. When massaging the back, do it from bottom to top, then from top to bottom, first massaging the center of the spine, then the left and right sides. This method can unblock the qi in the chest, open up the meridians in the spine, and at the same time has the effect of strengthening and nourishing the lungs.

8. Do lung-strengthening exercises after dinner

"Qigong for Lung Health": 1-2 hours after dinner, take a slow walk for 10-15 minutes, then find a quiet and relatively open place, stand still and relax your whole body, look straight ahead slowly, step your feet shoulder-width apart, put your palms together with your palms facing up, about 3 cm below your navel, contract your abdomen while inhaling, and then slowly exhale and relax. Practicing like this for half an hour is very helpful for strengthening the lungs.

9. Keep the room clean

Get plenty of sunlight, disinfect regularly, and open windows often at home. Go to places with fresh air to exercise and play games. Don’t play chess or cards on the roadside, as the air pollution there is the most serious and poses a great threat to the lungs.

10. Eat a light diet

Eat less irritating foods, especially during respiratory tract infections, avoid eating chili peppers, cumin, and mustard, otherwise it will be detrimental to the recovery of inflammation. Eating more foods that nourish yin and moisten the lungs, such as pears, lilies, loquats, lotus seeds, radishes, etc., can strengthen the spleen and eliminate phlegm.

11. Massaging your nose also protects your lungs

You might as well massage your nose frequently. Rub the outside of your thumbs against each other until you feel heat, then rub the outside of your thumbs up and down along the bridge of your nose and both sides of your nose wings 40 times, and then use your fingertips to press the "Yingxiang Points" on both sides of the nose wings 20 times. Such a simple little action can not only regulate the lung qi, but also prevent nasal congestion, runny nose and colds. When the seasons change, do nasal massage frequently.
