How to clean lungs in 3 days



1. Remove all dairy products two days before you begin your cleanse. Dairy products may interfere with the detoxification process, as they are slowly digested by the body. Your body must rid itself of any toxins from too much dairy products before you begin cleansing your lungs.

2. Drink 1cup of herbal laxative tea before you go to bed the evening before Day 1 of your 3-day cleanse. This will rid your system of any toxins in your intestines that may tend to constipate you. Your lungs must not be overworked by blockages anywhere in the body during your detoxification. There are many brands of herbal laxative teas. "Get Regular" by Yogi is among the top brands. Yogi tea can be found in most supermarkets in the natural-foods section, and in health-food stores.

4. Drink 10 oz. of purge grapefruit juice with breakfast. If you do not enjoy the taste of grapefruit juice, dilute it with a bottle of spring water or substitute with pineapple juice. These juices contain natural antioxidants that promote a healthy respiratory system.

5. Drink 8 to 10 oz. of pure carrot juice between breakfast and lunch. Carrot juice will help you alkalize your blood during your 3-day detox. Because of its beta-carotene content, which the body turns into Vitamin A, carrot juice aids in a clean and healthy respiratory system.
