How To Repair The Lungs After Quitting Smoking Using A Lung Detox

Repairing the lungs after quitting smoking is a great help to remaining quit. When you can actually feel your lungs becoming cleaner and stronger it’s a great incentive. I can speak personally about this because it helped me to stop smoking for good.

The method I decided to try was a simple, home lung detox which cost me around $30. The idea behind it is that it fast tracks the removal of chemicals, tar and toxins that have collected through your smoking habit. This in turn speeds up the the bodies natural repair of the lungs.

It’s quite simple to do but is an intense course and works very quickly so if you decide that it’s something that you want to try then be prepared. You do feel a little sick at times and without being too explicit, you do start to remove the contents of your lungs quite quickly. But what a relief it is to know that you are actually ridding your body of these harmful toxins once and for all in a matter of weeks. Apparently to allow the body alone to fully expel these chemicals and tar from the lungs can take between 10 to 15 years so it’s much better in my mind to get this done as soon as possible.

One thing that I told myself at this point was that I was never going back to my old smoking habit and that was a real bonus. In fact, to be honest the thought of smoking a cigarette now actually makes me feel quite sick, and on the odd occasion where I smell smoke from a smoker I really don’t like it. Understand though, I’m not anti smoking. I do believe that everyone should have the choice but it’s certainly no longer something that I would ever consider taking up again.

So what happens when the lungs are repairing? The main damage from smoking is done to the alveoli and the cilia. The alveoli are tiny sacks which transfer oxygen into the bloodstream. The alveoli damage caused by smoking is quite severe and some believe that it is never fully repaired even after many years, but don’t allow this to put you off quitting. On the other hand there is much better news about cilia. These are microscopic hairlike structures which actually sweep out particles and toxins from the lungs. Smoking paralyzes the cilia and so allows particles to build up. Once you have stopped smoking and the repairing of the lungs begins to happen the cilia start to function again and so strangely enough you may develop a cough. This is a good sign. The lung detox actually brought this stage on very quickly, two or three days to be exact and then fast tracked the cleaning of the lungs to speed up the repairing process. Within 3 or 4 weeks you start to feel a whole lot better.
