Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is a structured exercise and education program for people with chronic lung conditions. It is the most effective non-pharmacological intervention for COPD and other chronic respiratory diseases.
Supervised exercise training, breathing technique education, nutritional counseling, psychosocial support and disease management education. Programs typically run 6 to 12 weeks with ongoing maintenance.
PR improves exercise capacity, reduces breathlessness, improves quality of life and reduces hospital admissions. No supplement achieves any of these outcomes in diagnosed lung disease.
For diagnosed respiratory conditions, PR and medical treatment come first. Lungora provides general nutritional support that may complement (never replace) medical management. Discuss supplementation with your PR team.
