The lungs affect the whole body through breathing. Over the years, polluted air and allergens weaken them. Research shows that lung capacity peaks at 20–25 years of age.
There is a simple home test to check your lungs. You need a large plastic bottle, a container of water, and a rubber tube. By filling the bottle with water and blowing through the tube, you can measure your lung capacity.
The condition of the lungs is also linked to other health issues: heart disease, diabetes, weight problems, and even brain function. Therefore, keeping them strong is important.
Experts say that regular exercise, proper nutrition, avoiding tobacco and e-cigarettes, and breathing exercises can strengthen the lungs. Every breath is a step towards healthy living.
