Time... that is what will clean and heal your lungs... takes approx 2 years from stuff I have read.

As for plaque in your arteries, pomegranate juice has respectable science behind it to reverse artherisclerosis (sp?)

congrats on quitting smoking is an evil beast. i spent 10 years of my life slave to that demon.

just give it time, let your lungs clear up - there's nothing that i know of that will help, other than make sure you're taking in clean air.

time will do the trick. also, to get lung power back and maybe clean them up a little bit, do cardio. good luck!

I think that should be fine. Multi-vitamins do not really have strict dosages, the only area where you can have problems is with too much iron, but adam seems to be free of it.

As for the body repair, I think the most effective is exercise. It will increase your respiration and blood flow, and over time both should be improved through body's natural filtration and repair. As for supplements and foods, I guess anything healthy will do.

everybody is pretty on point with your lung recovery,Time is best. but as far your GF taking Adam (A man's Multi V that helps to promote Testosterone production) not a good idea IMO.

Congrats on the quitting! Welcome to your new life!

1) RE your GF- taking an ADAM Multi V is OK. Im a girl- I take it Im ok. Its supposed to keep natural, healthy levels of test, which is important for a woman too. However I doubt that what is in ADAM would really alter blood levels significantly. I personally noticed more energy @ men's dose/daily.

2) Are you coughing? congested ? you can use a mild expectorant, as you should expect some stuff to gradually come out of your lungs over time. I quit smoking 5 years ago- and coughed up some things here and there- Smoking causes temporary paralysis of the tiny micro hairs in your lung that help filter things out. As your lungs clear up- things will be removed- the larger things will be expectorated. Also- staying away from second hand smoke may be helpful, because as your body heals- you will end up overproducing mucus, or trigger inflamation in your lungs, as a protective mechanism.

3) x2 on pomegranate juice.

4) Time IS the best remedy

ADAM has nutrients, that a person can use to make more test, but there is nothing in the product that will actually stimulate test production.

Any grocery store carries it. If you can look for the no sugar added stuff.
