How should good lung health be defined at the population and individual levels?
Joan B. Soriano, Christine Jenkins
Abstract
Good lung health is a critical component of overall health and well-being. However, determining what constitutes good lung health can be challenging, as it depends on both population-level and individual-level factors. Surprisingly, to the best of our knowledge, good lung health has not been yet defined [1, 2]. Here we explore different ways of defining good lung health and suggest some practical approaches for promoting it. Rather than focusing on respiratory disease, a shift to lung health and wellness is worth exploring <https://bit.ly/3O7TQfi>
