Respiratory tract

Every minute we breathe 8 to 16 times, a process that we are not aware of but that is essential for our well-being. So it is necessary to take care of the respiratory system, with healthy habits and some exercise. There are also natural supplements for airway care that help you breathe easier, ease the discomfort of chronic respiratory disorders like asthma or allergies, and prevent diseases of the respiratory system like colds.

How to protect and care for the respiratory system

The respiratory system is made up of several organs that allow breathing. The main parts of the respiratory system are the nose, throat, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs. Each of these elements of the respiratory system must be cared for to prevent disorders. Respiratory hygiene includes breathing quality air, avoiding tobacco smoke or pollution; exercising outdoors to increase oxygenation; do not expose yourself to very cold and dry environments and drink water to avoid drying out the mucous membranes; and learn to breathe well, inhaling through the nose and exhaling through the mouth.

Natural supplements for the respiratory tract

In addition to proper respiratory hygiene, there are also some natural products that can help take care of the respiratory system. To prevent colds and respiratory infections, supplements that support the immune system such as propolis are helpful ; honey-lemon caramels and syrups soothe a cough and sore throat; seawater nasal sprays help flush out mucus; while thyme and eucalyptus have expectorant effects to decongest the respiratory tract; finally, isopo or sage oil relieves asthma episodes.
