The air we breathe in is often contaminated with particles, carbon monoxide and other environmental and industrial toxic substances. Breathing in this dirty air causes the bronchial tubes to constrict in order to trap particles in its sticky mucus. This constriction, while defending on one hand, causes us to take in less oxygen, which can affect the biochemical functions of our body. They manifest as  Shortness of breath ,Coughing ,Cold hands ,Congestion ,Weak voice ,Tiredness ,Airborne allergies ,Sneezing, Excess mucus ,Spontaneous sweating ,Poor sense of smell ,Varicose veins ,Slow healing of the skin ,Dry skin – skin disorders ,Sinus problems The lungs provide our main life support –oxygen and when body become toxic ridden and this attest our overall emotional vitality and metabolic energy. Every second, millions of cells are dying and being replaced.  When the lungs become toxic, the supply of oxygen at a cellular level is greatly reduced causing cellular death. Since death is directly related with sorrow when there is more cellular death in the body this can be felt mentally and emotionally and manifest as psychosomatic illnesses. Conversely, when the lungs are functioning well we are mentally and emotionally whole  The lungs have air sacs are called alveoli and there are about 350 million with overall surface area of around 800 square feet which allows for an easy transfer between blood and air. The walls of these alveoli are only one cell size thick. The blood then circulates oxygen it has picked up during the breathing process to every cell in the body. In our cells oxygen is combined with sugar to produce the energy we need to live.

This process is called internal respiration.  The lungs work to get rid of carbon dioxide, the waste product of the body’s energy metabolic end product. This transfer also takes place over the great surface area of the lungs’ many alveoli. Because the lungs contain a higher concentration of oxygen and the blood a higher level of carbon dioxide, the molecules of each move to balance each other. This leads to the transfer of oxygen for carbon dioxide through the alveoli walls. We can help our lungs release toxins with herbs that promote the expulsion of toxins from the respiratory system and support building healthy lung tissue. If you are a smoker it is essential to cleanse the lungs from smoking contaminants that build up in the respiratory system as a step toward good health and lung cancer prevention.

Taking a lung rejuvenating herbal preparation is essential for people who breathe polluted air, and especially for smokers or those with unhealthy lungs. Research is showing we can ward off lung disease or symptoms of lung cancer by supporting our lung's health with herbal supplements. When we cleanse our lungs we support and strengthen our body’s overall defenses while also helping our body build a healthy immune systemIt is pretty obvious that smoking will damage the lungs and respiratory system but did you know that forty-one percent of peptic ulcers found in males and thirty-three percent found in females is caused by smoking cigarettes? Or that eight percent of ulcerative colitis in males and three percent in females is also caused by smoking of cigarettes? Another statistic that truly surprised us was the number of fires that are caused by cigarette smoking. There are stories where people fell asleep with a lit cigarette but always assumed that those stories were rare. Twenty-three percent of fire injuries are due to cigarette smoking accidents. Of course, the number of deaths directly attributed to smoking is even more staggering: Each year tobacco causes some four million premature deaths.

 According to Shé D'Montford, Shambhallah, from Australia ‘The human body "WILL HEAL"... If we get out of our own way and allow it, it heals itself. It is our basic nature. Anybody who tells you other than that is trying to sell you something. No matter what you have been told. Don't give up on yourself and don't buy into the lines like ... ‘oh well you've had a good life'... 'at your age'... and the worst of all ...'there's nothing further I can do, I suggest you finalize your affairs'... How dare anyone tell you to give up! So much in society combines to convince us of the propaganda that some things never get better. It's up to you ... do you want to get better? Make things better? It is human nature to make things better, evolve and grow.”
