If external factors are all about the quality of the air we inhale, then the upper respiratory tracts is all about the quantity of air we inhale. What I mean here is that when we get:
  • swollen nasal cavities
    • sinus infections
    • allergies
    • infected adenoids
  • allergic reactions which clog up our nasal cavity with phlegm.
  • poor air quality causes inflammation in our nasal cavity.
I mean anything which restricts or constricts our breathing passages, we have reduced our ability to bring oxygen to the alveolus for exchange with the carbon dioxide in our blood. We must strive to enhance any good factors and minimize or eliminate any negative factors in our upper respiratory tract.
  • nostrils
  • nasal cavity
  • pharynx
  • larynx
More discussion in this article.

Whether it is quality or quantity, if you want to fight a breathing disorder like copd, then you had better resign yourself to minimizing the negative and enhancing the positive factors.
