Does anyone understand how peak flow measurements indicate severity of COPD. I am assessed as moderate COPD, however my peak flow of 275 does not appear on peak flow charts, the lowest figure being 300. The medics tell me my peak flow and breathing are fine/normal.
Maintain healthy eating habits. Avoid fad diets-they are often incredibly unhealthy. To get all the nutrition the human body needs, you must eat a balanced diet including dairy, grains, protein, fruits and veggies, as well as fat (yes, even fat!). By doing so, you'll have a healthy heart, healthy brain, and a fully functional immune system.
With the exception of avocados, the majority of fruits have only a trace amount of fat. You actually need fat in your diet, particularly the heart-healthy mono- and polyunsaturated kinds. Fats help your body absorb and store the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K; create hormones and enzymes; protect vital organs; and stabilize your body temperature.
