Lung cancer normally gives no symptoms until it reaches the advanced stages. As this disease progresses, symptoms like coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and bloody mucus start to appear. The conventional treatment includes surgery, chemotherapy, and/or radiation. Although a healthy diet can’t cure or treat lung cancer, it can lower the risk of developing the disease as well as help a patient manage the symptoms once it develops. Plus, a balanced, nutrient-dense diet can raise the chances of successful cancer treatments and prevent some side effects, like undesirable weight loss. Smoking and lung cancer usually go hand in hand. If you are a chain smoker, there are several ways you can clear your lungs of tar and toxins, thus reduce your risk of illness.
