Running is a great way to increase your lung’s health. It will make them stronger and healthier. It will even protect your lungs from pollution in the air. If you breathe through your mouth like most runners and cyclists then you are bypassing your body’s natural filtering mechanism. The nose filters bad air that you breathe and cleans it before it enters your lungs. This is important because without your nose you would be breathing bad air. The more you run the more oxygen that your body will take in helping you to increase your lung capacity. This will also help with blood flow in your body helping to bring more oxygen to your limbs giving you better mobility and energy. So with all that said go out and run so you can have iron lungs!
