The lungs, noble organs

In his book “The lungs is vital!”, Dr. Carole Moreau explains that “the lungs are part of the so-called noble organs: they give us life. In the lungs, the bronchi are the system for capturing air and particles (dust, toxins, microbes). Then, it is in the alveoli that the oxygen attaches to the red blood cells, which carry it into our cells. They thus receive their main fuel. ” The lungs are therefore essential for our oxygenation, but they are involved in other essential functions: they eliminate carbon dioxide, stabilize the blood pH, intervene in the venous circulation but also in the metabolism of carbohydrates and regulate blood pressure.

Taking care of our lungs is therefore essential to stay healthy.
