3 Everyday Things I Avoid to Protect My Lungs | Bronchiectasis Tips ⭐️book a consultation with Linda ➡️ https://www.letsbecleartoday.com/cons... ⭐️buy The BE CLEAR Book ➡️ https://a.co/d/hVb6x2q What are some of the everyday habits that may quietly increase bacterial exposure, reflux-related lung irritation, or the risk of flare-ups when living with bronchiectasis or chronic lung disease? In this video, I share 3 more practical precautions I personally take to help reduce bacterial exposure and better protect my lungs. This is part two of my series, building on the first three habits I discussed previously. From reflux and aspiration to restaurant ice, tap water, and knowing when it may be time to culture sputum rather than “wait it out,” these are practical strategies I use based on my own lived experience, ongoing education, and conversations with medical experts. As always, these are personal practices I have chosen for myself and are meant to educate, not alarm. Please consult your medical team before changing your current practices.
