Cleansing your lungs lets you detox them of infection, lower the risk of cancer, expand lung capacity and improve the health of the respiratory tract.

This is primarily suggested to smokers and people living in places with polluted air. Here are the best foods and plants that can cleanse your lungs and heal respiratory infections.

Inhalations Using Essential Oils

You should do inhalations with essential oils of rosemary or eucalyptus twice or three times a week, which would help you cleanse your lungs from contamination.

You don’t have to buy a special device for the inhalation. All you have to do is heat some water in a big pot, put a few drops of essential oil and place a towel over your head while you inhale.

This is refreshing and delightful, and it will also help you if you’re dealing with some sort of breathing problems. In addition, it can be helpful when dealing with the flu, cold or some other respiratory problems.
