Caring for the parts of our body we can’t see is just as important as those we can! According to American Lung Association, our lungs mature by age 20-25. After age 35, their functionality begins to diminish due to age-related changes. As we get even older, these changes to the lungs and other surrounding body parts can make breathing more difficult. Care for your lungs with these 5 steps:... Don’t smoke, or take steps to quit Get regular aerobic exercise (with physician approval) Avoid exposure to pollutants Prevent respiratory infection Take a deep breath Comfort Keepers can help senior clients with both preventive care and recovery from respiratory illness.
