Anybody know some good lung-clearing methods?

albuterol's good stuff, isn't it? That's saved my life a few times!

I used to smoke abour 10-20 blunts a day with all my roommates and after a while my lungs started feeling like shit. I would always hack up grey-green phlegm and feel out of breath and tired all the time.

My solution was to buy a vaporizer. I got a hands free, vapor brothers for around 140$ on discountworldonline.com. I Know it seems like alot of money but it's so fucking worth it. If you're worrried about your lungs I'd HIGHLY reccomend investing in a vaporizer. Not only does it get you fucked up out of your mind, but my lungs feel great. I still smoke with my friends, but for personal use I only vaporize. I feel great, not only because I'm riding a huge vapor high right now but because I'm healthy again.

It's really worth it, you use less weed for the THC you get (although you don't get the buzz from burning all the chemicals, you just mainly get THC and some of the other goodies) you can use the weed you've vaporized with in baking. For me 1-2 weeks of vapor duff (brown vaporized weed) makes a tin of brownies, which get me high as hell.

yeah but albuterol isnt exactly good for u either, doesnt it scar the lungs (im not doc), i use it once in a blue moon, havent had a bad attack since highschool. can u take deep breaths but not exhale worth a damn? if so probably asthma

Guaifenesin, found in many OTC cough and cold remedies, helps increase the water content of mucous which helps thin secretions. Find the formula you want (liquid, capsule, etc) and take 1200mg twice a day for a couple of weeks.

If you live outside the US you can get this great herbal called Breath Aid by Natures Way. Other herbs are things Like Mormen tea. These herbs will clear you lungs well.I have asthma and use them so I do not have to use harsh drugs that make me shake. In addition you might want to start eating your smoke, or infusing vodaka, make a bloody mary with a pickeled green been, not celery and a espersso.

FACT .... this will induce deep coughing. It is commonly know to us, that are not ignorant to ancient remedies, that garlic was applied like this to sick childerns feet while asleep as many children would feel uncomfortable on taking garlic orally. The theory is that garlic travel through the body quiet fast considering it acts as an antiworm, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antioxidant, anticancer, lowers blood glucose ,lower blood pressure and does a grand olde job in breaking up mucus linned deep in the lungs vessel


TEST THE FACT ....... After applying the garlic as I suggested the fact is that garlic can be tasted from your own tongue after twenty to thirty minutes of applcation..... ask someone to smell your breath in this time and that person will clarify the same. Oh ya and before I read something about garlic breath...... answer is fresh parsley chewed.

repeat this procedure as often as you wish


NOTE WITH CAUTION Asmathics take it easy first to see how you chest takes this....and for the coughing experienced dont worry it is working and for those not coughing it is still cleaning your blood all good really.

Oh ya mrdevious[ sounds like you gotta start taking the bud in food, not through smoking and not in your SOCKS !!! :thumbsup:

This is in no way a fact. Garlic is not fat-soluble, so it cannot be absorbed through the soles of feet (nor can many fat soluble substances- your feet are VERY thick and tough)

The only way this would induce coughing is if you took the socks off in the morning and took a big whiff.

I am not skeptic of many ancient "remedies" but this one seems like a crock of shit.

It's hard to say, but I know there are many substances out there that can be absorbed through the skin (including psilosybin and lysergic acid, apparently). My mom's a nurse and has huge knowledge of biology (from outside her nursing as well), and said that garlic on the feet thing would be plossible.

But on the note of garlic itself, she's totally right about its medical properties. Besides the fact that I've heard countless testimonials to that fact, I have large concentrated (odorlous) garlic pills that will clear a cold faster than cold FX (and that coldfx is a damn cure for the common cold!). Every time I hit the beginning of a cold now I just take 1 garlic pill in the morning, one in the afternoon or evening, and it's GONE for good. Garlic is an especially effective anti-viral.

I work in the medical field as well, and I have a Bach. in Biology. Garlic is not fat soluble, it is water soluble. The skin is much too thick and dense on the bottoms of your feet to absorb anything, much less garlic. But yes, garlic is EXCELLENT for its decongesting and antiviral properties.

Echinacea is also VERY good for lung clearing.
