Deletevitamin c like tomatoes, citrus fruits, tumeric, mangosteen.
Deletestay away from pollutants. eat more fruits and vege. eat less meat and fats.
less salt, less fats, and less sugar.
I've also been told by alternative medicine professionals (naturalists) that carrots, and ESPECIALLY carrot juice helps clean and protect the lungs - if you are quitting smoking, its recommended that you drink at least a quart of carrot juice daily for several months. It should be the first food you consume in the mornings, before coffee, etc. Also, make sure to increase water intake - up to a gallon per day, if you can. Half a gallon minimum if you cant. All other fresh fruits and vegetables are good, too. All fruits and vegetables are nature's medicine. Blueberries, strawberries, and any kind of berries are great. Eat them daily. Kelp, spinach, dandelion greens. Just make sure to wash well. I put mine in a blender and make smoothies every day from them. Also, a cup of combined raw onions, garlic, and mushrooms have huge health benefits all around. I wish this country and the world would start thinking of food and diet as nature's natural medicine and quit those nasty sodas, junk foods, fast foods, and fried foods. I did this for 9 months now and feel so much better than I ever did in my life! Also, I quit smoking (although still using ecigs, but its better than regular cigs), and eat berries and carrot juice (as well as other fruits and vegetables) every day. Just try it, you will be amazed how much better you feel in a month, your skin will glow after about 3 months, and your body will definitely let you know its doing much better! Good luck to all those who are seeking to quit smoking and other bad habits, and going back to nature's basic natural foods.

ReplyDeletedont know what jo,s problem is .nice post anyway.
ReplyDeleteWe just found out that we had a very large amount of mold on the insulation in our furnace. The service tech said that it's probably been growing there a long time--for as much as there was. (We built this house 14 years ago.) So this mold, in our ventilation system, had been transferred throughout our whole house, for who knows how long. Of course the insulation has been replaced, but what do we do about the health of our lungs that have a lot of exposure to this? (My husband and I are in our 40's. Our son is 20. We have no symptoms of mold exposure, surprisingly.)
ReplyDeleteAnd to add to that, we found out not too many years ago that we had high radon in this house. We installed a radon mitigation system, but I'm sure we have lung damage because of the radon also. Especially our son, whom played in the basement a lot when he was younger.
Any ideas on detoxifying, especially after the mold exposure?
