Surprising Supplement PROTECTS Your Lungs?!
I’d venture to say that lung health is on people’s minds more than ever before.
COVID-19 is a respiratory virus, after all.
And as you’ve heard countless times on the news, the virus can lead to lung complications such as pneumonia.
Plus, in the most severe cases, it can cause acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), which is essentially a form of lung failure.
Patients with ARDS are the ones who typically need to be put on ventilators.
But now, researchers have identified a surprising way to protect your lungs — and it could go a long way toward lowering your risk of developing a severe respiratory virus.
By now you know that probiotics are good for you.
They improve the health of your gut microbiome. And better gut health leads to better digestion, better sleep, sharper cognitive function, more energy, reduced cardiovascular disease, and more.
In short, there’s not a single part of your body that isn’t impacted by the health of your gut.
Case in point: A recent study tied probiotics to respiratory health.
For the study, researchers looked at food and supplement diaries of 200 people. They found that compared to the placebo group, those taking probiotics had a 27 percent lower risk of developing a respiratory problem!
This protective effect was strongest in those over 45 and in obese individuals.
This was a critical finding, considering the fact that people in those categories tend to have the greatest risk of respiratory conditions.
For example, obesity can cause changes in the lungs and chest wall, which can lead to asthma-like symptoms. And the risk of pulmonary diseases increases with age and can contribute to an early death.
You may have never given much thought to your lung health, but with COVID-19 still in the air, it’s a good time to start.
The healthier your lungs are now, the better off you’ll be—whether you get COVID-19 or not.
Of course, lung health isn’t the only reason to focus on a healthy gut.
Studies have also shown that people with more of the good bacteria in their guts tend to have lower body fat, less inflammation, lower blood pressure, and better blood sugar regulation.
