Today we’re going to talk about mucus and how amazing mucus really is. Your mucus is actually a very important part of your body. 

The body makes between 1 and 1.5 liters of mucus per day. The mucus sits on mucus membranes covering the inside of your body. The mucus membrane is a part of the immune system. Friendly bacteria live in the mucus, and immune cells live in the mucus. 

The mucus membrane and the mucus on top of it line the:

 • Sinuses 

 • Mouth 

 • Throat 

 • Lungs 

 • Stomach 

 • Intestines 

 • Kidneys 

 • Urogenital 


What does mucus do?

 • It acts as a lubricant

 • It’s antimicrobial 

 • It has good bacteria 

 • It acts like a flytrap for harmful microbes

 • It has antibodies 

 • It acts as a barrier to keep pathogens out 


How to thin mucus build-up:

1. NAC

2. Vitamin A

3. Vitamin D
