Even if you have never smoked and always avoiding smoking, your lung function will continue to decline at age 40. Although lung peaked at around the age of 25, only when you are in their 30s began to increase rapidly aging.
According to researchers at Georgetown University, the alveoli - small air sacs in the lungs that allow oxygen to cross into the bloodstream and allow the carbon dioxide to come out - begin to lose surface area. This makes the lungs less efficient in removing oxygen. The result you may experience difficulty breathing during exercise.
Do not remove the milk from your menu
A 2010 study published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition states that people who consistently eat two servings of low-fat dairy products each day such as milk, yogurt, and cottage cheese showed fewer symptoms of diseases associated with brain damage. The hero is vitamin D in fortified dairy products. The researchers believe that this may improve lung function. "Milk is also rich in vitamin A, which is considered to activate genes involved in the production of new lung tissue," said Matthew Hind, M.D, Ph.D, a researcher and physician at London's Royal Brompton Hospital. Schedule to eat two or three servings of fortified dairy products every day, and you will consume up to 10 micrograms of vitamin D and vitamin A to 455 micrograms.
