Abstract
Author(s): Manikonda Prakash Rao
The objective of the paper is to create awareness among people about alternative and complimentary methods to protect themselves from various respiratory diseases including throat and lung cancers. The diseases cause the following changes in airways such as inflammation: acute inflammation is a defense process whereas chronic inflammation is a disease process; hyper secretion of mucus, which is the result of goblet cell hyperplasia in respiratory mucosa and is a prominent future of inflammation. They go together. Bronchospasm is an additional factor in asthma patients. Chronic mucus hyper secretion is a potential risk factor for an accelerated loss of lung function. The thick viscous mucus in the lungs will be conducive to pathogens. Continued inflammation and mucus hyper secretion may significantly contribute to transformation of normal cells into pre-cancerous cells and later into cancerous cells i.e. the scope for series of mutations on genes may get increased. Exercise is a potent medication in history.
