Preventing Lung Disease

Lung Disease Responsible for 1 in 10 Deaths

According to a study by The European Respiratory Society, lung disease is the cause of 1 in 10 deaths in Europe and these figures could rise to as many as 1 in 5 by 2030

It’s a shocking statistic but what can we do to help prevent the onset of such diseases like Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), lung cancer, pneumonia and tuberculosis?  Here are 10 tips in maintaining healthy lungs:

  1. Get regular exercise
  2. Eat a diet rich in fruit and vegetables, paricularly garlic
  3. Practice deep breathing on a daily basis
  4. Don’t smoke
  5. Avoid passive smoking
  6. Make sure you workplace is safe, for example free from chemicals and toxic fumes
  7. Help prevent air pollution – be economical with electricity, recycle your rubbish, try to keep your thermostats down, walk instead of drive where possible and keep fireplaces well maintained
  8. Check the radon levels in your home, some areas of the UK have higher levels than others, you can buy radon checkers online for under £50
  9. Keep your home free of respiratory irritants – e.g. aerosol’s and pets if you have allergies. Perfumes and cleaning products can be irritants so keep them to a minimum.
  10. Recognise the signs of lung disease – chest pains, chronic cough especially with excess mucus or blood, wheezing, shortness of breath and chronic fatigue
