Studies have shown that the ingredients contained in Lungshield may reduce the severity and frequency of asthmatic flare ups if taken continuously.
HOW DOES THIS HELP ATHLETES?

During training you inhale more free radicals and pollutants that at a resting rate and therefore your lungs encounter oxidative stress, which not only reduces the amount of oxygen circulated in your body it also protects your lungs against damage which is often caused by oxidative stress. Oxygen production and distribution is essential for sustained energy during training.

Lungshield contains ingredients which have shown to counter oxidative stress, reduce inflammation and opens up the airways. Note that Lugshield does not cure or prevent Silicosis.
HOW DOES IT HELP FOR SMOKERS LUNGS / SMOKER?
- Lungshield is recommended for smokers or ex-smokers.
- Lungshield Capsules were designed to reduce oxidative stress in the lungs and to protect your lungs from harmful free radicals.
- When you smoke your lungs encounter oxidative stress and inflammation as a result of the pollutant (in this case cigarette smoke) being inhaled.
WHAT DOES IT DO?
- Lungshield helps to reduce the oxidative stress in the lungs caused by breathing in smoke, fuel emissions, chemicals, toxins and other free radicals that cause inflammation. Oxidative stress, according to studies, is believed to play an essential role in the development of respiratory infections as well as some more serious conditions such as heart failure and cancer.
- Similarly with asthma, COPD and other respiratory infections, Lungshield helps to manage oxidative stress which causes inflammation and infections.
Support for:
- Smoker’s lungs
