So this is a topic that I think is on everyone's mind as we're headed into fall and winter.

Can you tell us about what the respiratory system consists of?

Well, it's important to remember that our respiratory system is a system that's

equally as important as our heart is. It is vital to our survival and vital to our health.

And to understand the respiratory system and why the health of our respiratory system is so important, we need to understand all the anatomy and the parts that go into that.

So it's important to remember that the nose is part of it, the mouth, the throat, the voice box, the windpipe, which is your trachea.

You have multiple little airways that go down into

your lungs called the bronchiae that go from big to smaller, all the way down into little microscopic

alveoli. And that makes up our lungs. And our lungs have lobes and they're very complex, but in the

same sense, our lungs are, the tissues very delicate.

And the whole purpose is to bring oxygen into our body and to exhale carbon dioxide.

Now, why are feelings of clear and open airways so important?

So with proper oxygenation, it is easier for our body to stay healthy and to stay well.
