Lung capacity peaks around age 25 to 35 and gradually declines thereafter. By age 70, vital capacity may be 30% lower than peak. Understanding this decline helps you take appropriate action.
Chest wall stiffens (costal cartilage calcifies), respiratory muscles weaken, alveolar surface area decreases and the lung tissue loses elasticity. These changes reduce maximum oxygen exchange capacity.
Exercise: Regular aerobic activity is the most effective intervention for maintaining lung function. Not smoking: Smoking accelerates the natural decline dramatically. Posture: Good posture allows full diaphragm expansion. Nutrition: Antioxidant-rich diets support lung tissue health.
