8. Nuts
Nuts are great, so go nuts, because they give your body a proper dose of vitamin E, which helps minimize inflammation, enhances your immune system and promotes the health of red blood cells, which deliver more oxygen to your body.
As you probably know, a stable supply of oxygen prevents the blood vessels in your lungs from constricting and helps you breathe better. “A diet rich in vegetables, fruits, and other plants sources and low in processed foods and sugar can help keep your lungs and the rest of your body in top shape,” says Schiff.
