Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Consuming Clean and Nutritious Food and Water is a Cure for Pulmonary Disease

 

Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD) are conditions in the lungs that cause breathing difficulties. Mostly middle-aged people and older adults who smoke suffer from these diseases. You might develop COPD if you are exposed to harmful chemicals at home or work. Even respiratory infections like pneumonia or family history with related diseases could cause COPD. Emphysema and chronic bronchitis are common COPD conditions. Emphysema occurs when air sacs in the lungs are damaged. Alveoli sacs at the end of the respiratory tract can get damaged due to exposure to harmful chemicals or smoking. Long-term inflammation of the airways causes chronic bronchitis. The lining of the bronchial tubes that carry air from one alveolus to another gets damaged; daily cough and mucus production are apparent indications of it. With these diseases breathing issues can get worse over time and might even make it difficult for you to do daily activities. However, through proper treatment, you can control COPD.
