Only by nourishing the lungs can we better resist the "COVID-19". How to raise lungs?

Thanks to the efforts of the state, medical staff and ourselves for more than a month, COVID-19 is now under good control, and the daily increase is decreasing, with zero increase in many areas. These are undoubtedly exciting achievements. Of course, the epidemic is not over yet. The more we see the results, the more we should do a good job of protection and not increase the burden on the country and medical staff.

As a disease invading the lung, COVID-19 virus will have a great impact on the function of the lung. With the arrival of spring, respiratory diseases such as influenza will become more likely to occur. In this case, it is necessary for us to take some measures to protect our lungs to avoid infection.

How to raise lungs during the epidemic

The lung is a place for gas exchange in the body. It is not only a respiratory organ, but also can repair damaged bone marrow and hematopoiesis, which is very important for human health. In terms of nourishing the lungs, there are actually many similarities with the protective measures in COVID-19. Generally speaking, we should do the following:

1, pay attention to the cleanliness of the environment

Being isolated at home doesn't mean that you have to close your home and have no contact with the outside world at all. People need to breathe and need oxygen in the air. If they are kept in a closed environment, the oxygen content in the air will decrease, while the number of bacteria and particles will increase. Once the immunity is impaired, it is likely to be infringed, leading to respiratory diseases. Therefore, when staying at home, we should pay attention to opening the window for ventilation, keep the air circulating, and clean the room frequently to make the environment clean and tidy.

2, active exercise

Exercise can strengthen the body and increase the body's resistance to diseases, especially respiratory diseases. A person who exercises regularly is much less likely to suffer from respiratory diseases than a person who does little exercise. Therefore, we can't ignore sports because we need isolation and protection. Even at home, we can choose running classes, yoga, Tai Chi and other sports to exercise and strengthen our physique.

Step 3 strengthen nutrition

Needless to say, the relationship between nutrition and immunity, we can appropriately increase the intake of high protein, high cellulose and vitamin-rich food in our daily life, which is of great help to protect the lungs.

In addition, there are some tips for nourishing and protecting the lungs:

1, laugh

Laughter can be said to be the cheapest and simplest exercise. For the respiratory system, laughter can dilate the lungs, and people will take a deep breath unconsciously, clean the respiratory tract and make breathing smoother. Besides, when we laugh, we tend to inhale more oxygen, which is also very beneficial to the body's metabolism.

Step 2 do breathing exercises

In other words, take a deep breath regularly. It is recommended to try to breathe for 6.4 seconds. You can also hold your breath properly and enhance your lung function. These methods can be done several times in normal times.

3. Diet therapy

I don't think anyone will refuse to eat and nourish the lungs. The foods that nourish the lungs are pears, lilies, tremella, radishes, persimmons and yams. Usually you can soak dried tangerine peel, lily, honey, etc. in water or inject water.
