Another potent lung cleansing drink we recommended to include in the lung cleanse is the lung detox smoothie. The consistency of the smoothie is much thicker than the lungs cleansing juice, which many people enjoy.

The smoothie provides you with much more fiber. Around 50% of the recommended dietary allowance (RDA). As research suggests, a diet rich in fiber-containing foods may play a role in improving lung health [3].

Lung Detox Smoothie – Nutrition Facts

In addition to its high fiber content, the lung detox smoothie also provides your body with many essential nutrients, including a few key ingredients that may play a key role for lung health:

  • Bromelain:
    Bromelain is an enzyme found in pineapple. According to research, Bromelain has the ability to reduce lung inflammation, decrease airway sensitivity to irritants, and benefit sinus infection. [4].
  • Anthocyanins:
    Anthocyanins are the blue, red, or purple pigments of berries. Multiple studies suggested that Anthocyanins may play a key role in the health of the lungs.

  • Quercetin:
    Research data suggests that, Quercetin, a major flavonoid in apples can provide therapeutic relief of asthma symptoms, and may also suppress growth of lung cancer cells [6].
