Lung Cleanse
The lungs are organs that connect directly with the out-

side world. They process the pollution that comes from the

environment on a first-hand basis. The lungs are well sup-
plied with blood and form a barrier that allows the body

to absorb oxygen from the air and also to excrete carbon
dioxide to the atmosphere. The lungs are a very metabol-

ically active site for detoxification of some toxins. Because
the lungs are in contact with our polluted atmosphere,

they can absorb many airborne pollutants. Some of these

pollutants are particulate (solid) in nature and can be-
come trapped within the lung tissue, and some pollutants

are chemical (fluid) in nature and gain access to the body
by dissolving directly through the lung membranes into The lungs are a very metabolically active

the blood. These chemical site for detoxification of some toxins.
pollutants can them-

selves act as oxidants which damage the lung tissue or cause the lung tissue
to be damaged when the body attempts to get rid of the pollutants.

Alpha Science Labs has developed a special herbal formula to help protect

the lung tissue from damage and also to help the body rid itself of the

trapped particulate pollutants.
Lung Cleanse is made up of a combination of herbs used in Western herb-
TM
alism and Traditional Chinese Medicine to help loosen and expel trapped
particulate pollutants and to provide anti-oxidants which specifically pro-

tect the lung tissue. It contains the herbs Baical Skullcap, Grosvenor Mo-
mordica, Chrysanthemum, Honeysuckle and Mulberry Leaf.
