problem (dryness) in the lungs

can also lead to problems in

bowel movements and might

lead to constipation

as steaming or boiling which will

help to moisturise the organs upon

preparing meals, and cook

things under low heat to

retain moisture in your food

and soups with ingredients that

have a good amount of good oils

in them are perfect for curing

lungs’ dryness in the autumn

include in your senior’s daily

diet to help aid with their

lungs’ dryness problem:

Organic soy products: tofu,

soymilk, miso
