Your Weekly Newsletter For April 10, 2025 | | 6 Lung Detox Tips for Smokers | | | | |
If you're a smoker (or have been in the past), your lungs have been through a lot. The good news? With the right approach, you can help your lungs heal. | | | | |
Within just 20 minutes of your last cigarette, your heart rate and blood pressure start to drop, signaling the beginning of your recovery. As days turn into weeks, your circulation improves, lung function begins to restore, and those tiny hair-like cilia in your lungs start working more efficiently to clear out mucus and debris. | | Clearing mucus from your lungs helps prevent lung infections. If you get frequent lung infections, you probably have excess mucus buildup in your lungs. To loosen mucus, try methods like coughing, steam therapy, and natural expectorants like mullein tea to help loosen and expel mucus. | | 3. Avoid Pollutants and Irritants | | We recommend checking daily air quality indexes (on sites www.airnow.gov), using HEPA air filters, and vacuuming regularly for a cleaner indoor environment. On top of that, avoid exposure to sources of pollutants and irritants such as: - Natural gas and oil
- Vehicles and equipment
- Residential heating and cooling sources
- Commercial and industrial processes
- Fragranced cleaning products
- Cigarettes and secondhand smoke
| | Water is more than just a thirst quencher - it's a critical component of your body's natural detoxification system! Men should aim for approximately 15.5 cups of fluid daily, while women should target around 11.5 cups, though individual needs may vary based on activity level. For an added boost of antioxidants, consider adding BetterLungs® Mullein Tincture into your diet. This tincture's easy dropper is ideal for adding mullein extract into water and healthy smoothies. It's formulated with chlorophyll, a natural compound in green plants known for detoxification and internal cleansing. | | 5. Start an Exercise and Breathwork Routine | | Regular exercise helps strengthen the muscles involved in breathing, improves lung capacity, and enhances overall respiratory efficiency. Activities like walking, swimming, and yoga are particularly beneficial, offering low-impact ways to support lung health. Breathing exercises such as diaphragmatic breathing, pursed-lip breathing, and paced breathing can dramatically improve lung function, increasing oxygen intake and helping to clear out stale air from the lungs. Consistent breathwork can help retrain your respiratory muscles, improve oxygen exchange, and reduce the likelihood of lung complications. | | 6. Eat Antioxidant-Rich Foods | | Antioxidants help protect your lungs from oxidative stress and inflammation. Load up on foods like: - Berries
- Leafy greens
- Nuts and legumes
- Seeds
- Beans and lentils
- Wild-caught fish
- Turmeric and ginger
- Healthy fats and avocados
- Artichokes and red cabbage
- Fresh vegetables
As you mind your diet, you should also actively avoid foods that can worsen asthma and inflammation. Avoid eating foods such as sugars, additives, trans fats, and refined vegetable oils. | | | | |

Great tips, thank you for sharing! I've tried mullein for lung detox, and it really helped me with coughing and heavy breathing. I take Nutraharmony mullein drops for lungs twice a year now, and I feel myself better. Yes, quitting smoking would be the best, but this is also a great help for my lungs.
