The wind is picking up! In ancient Chinese medicine, the lungs were the administrators responsible for orderly and lawful conduct. In other words, the lungs bring in the outside air, filter and distribute clean oxygen, and remove carbon dioxide. The lungs are responsible for gatekeeping the inside and outside world.
So, how do you care for the lungs, Sue? Breathing is automatic and somewhat out of our control plus, the environment sucks, but there are ways to help support your lungs.
This week's nutrition assignment is to add B12, which can help support the lungs, including asthma and lung diseases. B12 is found in salmon, liver, beef, eggs, and hard cheese. For my vegans, add nutritional yeast. Also, eating beets can help you add more oxygen.
Our lungs do not like cold, damp environments, so keep your neck covered and your feet warm.
