Adiction damage

What are the best things you can do to repair your  body from long periods of polydrugs use especially for lungs and throat?

[Michael569]

Making sure you won't take them again is probably the best thing. 

Second to them, having a healthy lifestyle and diet can go a long way.

@Michael569 thanks for response

swallowing 4 or 5 small balls of curcumin and neem on an empty stomach with just a bit of water seemed to do wonders for my throat when smoking a lot, the lungs stuff probably abstaining or reducing your use will be the faster way to recover, probably along with staying in nature of places with high quality oxygen

Sipping on turmeric/ginger tea with lime as we speak.

Truly living the yin/yang lifestyle

The substance itself is not the problem, it is your relationship to it.

@Sho fioDrink lots of green smoothies (go on yt for recipes), that's to help with the detoxification and to help repair the damaged lung tissues. Black seed oil and cutting out processed foods, limited sugar intake and drink lots of alkaline water to help thin the mucus in your airways and lungs. Not sure how damaged you are but these may help in the process of repair. 

Stay away from conventional air fresheners especially the plug-ins as they can contribute to OCD and anything aerosol as in sprays. Avoid smokes, vaping, dust, mold and chemicals like bleach and conventional cleaning products.

*Get oxygen in by regular exercise but be careful with cardio and go slow and build your way up and watch for heart palpitations. 

Deep breathing exercises may help including Dr Weil's 4-7-8 technique, breathe in for 4 secs, hold for 7 secs and exhale for 8 secs. Repeat 10x and do three times a day till you see improvement.

Eat foods rich in antioxidants like blueberries, strawberries, kale and dark chocolate which all helps to support healthy lungs.

Use an air purifier. *

Go ahead and drink some gasoline while having a good relationship to it and see how that works for you.

That sounds very healthy and even interesting to taste.
