Our lungs are subjected to continuous exposure to toxins in the air, impurities, smoke and respiratory infections. All these factors, over time, damage the lung function, decrease oxygen absorption and ultimately result in respiratory conditions like asthma, COPD and bronchitis. Today’s medicines and antibiotics have numerous cures but nature also has very effective helpers in the shape of herbs that can be used to clean the lungs and increase the lung capacity. Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese medicine use these herbs as natural anti-inflammatories if taken cautiously.
