TIPS TO HELP YOU STOP SMOKING




Smoking is not only dangerous to health; it is also a bad habit that may be intolerable to others- non-smokers. The effects of smoking affect not only the smoker but also a non-smoker who unconsciously inhale the smoke or fume from the cigarette. The decision to start smoking can be effected immediately but quitting smoking takes more than a decision, it requires all the tools of discipline which include a will, mindset, determination, and a firm decision. Apparently, it is a difficult task to quit smoking, yet not impossible. There are two major factors that will determine your success in quitting smoking as quickly as possible. They are:


1.    WILL- You must have a strong will against smoking. The desire and determination you have will go a long way to help you stop smoking. The reason why people still find themselves smoking even when they have decided not to smoke anymore is that they haven’t had the will to stop smoking, they only contemplate quitting. Where there is a will, there’s away. You can’t stop unless you have the will.






2.    MINDSET- You must think about the effects of smoking, the health hazard it means to your body, the bad habit associated with it and you must see smoking as a strange negative indulgence, after all, there’s nothing good in smoking, don’t you think so? Don’t try to deceive yourself by thinking that when you smoke, you get relief from some depressing condition, no you don’t! rather you compound the problems and don’t forget smokers are liable to die young, even the producers said so. According to a study, smoking is a major cause of most deadly diseases and disorders including lung cancer, heart diseases, high blood pressure, gum diseases, depression, diabetes, low sperm count, infertility in men and women, bones and joint disorders, also causes bad breath [smelling mouth].

REMEDY- You will soon stop smoking if you replace a packet of cigarettes with a packet of vitamin C tablets in your pocket, taking one each time you think about smoking. Also try and resist the temptation to smoke, avoid friends that will make you smoke. Take fruits especially watermelon.

Some herbs, like the bitter leaves (Vernonia amygdalina) or bitter gourd (Momordica charantia) will help to suppress your craving for smoking. just wash some clean leaves, put in a blender, add some water, then blend smoothly. filter out the juice and drink; do this once a day for about a week. but before you take the bitter leaves. ensure your blood sugar is in a good range as bitter can lower your sugar level.
Good luck!
