Stop Smoking
Quit Smoking-11 Simple Tricks
Below are 11 simple tricks that can help you in the early days of quitting smoking.
CRANBERRY JUICE - If you did nothing at all your body would be rid of nicotine
in 72 hours but drinking cranberry juice can accelerate the amount of
time it takes to remove the nicotine from your body. Try to find a
sugar free organic cranberry juice.Helps flush the nicotine out of your
system.
WHITE WINE VINEGAR - This really cleans your mouth and gives you a fresh, clean
feeling. One of the challenges you face when you quit is that taste in
your mouth that tells you that you want a cigarette. Try a little white
wine vinegar the next time.Swish some white wine vinegar
around in your mouth several times a day for as long as you can
tolerate.
NIACIN - Don't overdue it with this vitamin, but there
is some evidence that niacin helps to flush out the nicotine in your
body. Again your goal the first couple days is to rid yourself of
nicotine as quickly as possible. I would not recommend taking excessive
doses of niacin for an extended period but it can be very helpful the
first few days.
CLEAN YOUR MOUTH -I found this combination to help
really deter me from wanting a cigarette. After swishing some White
wine vinegar in my mouth, I would brush my teeth with a little hydrogen
peroxide to wet my toothbrush, then toothpaste with a little baking
powder on top. Not sure what it is with this mixture but it really
made me not want a cigarette after.
BAKING SODA - Some people have sworn by the powers of
baking soda to quit smoking. What an amazing product,not only is it a
cooking aid, it helps deodorize your refrigerator and now even helps
quit smoking. Try mixing a small amount in a glass of water or just
placing a dab on your tongue when you have an urge to smoke. There is
something about the alkalinity of the substance that helps fight
nicotine craves. Again, I would not recommend using on a long term
basis.
VITAMIN C -When you smoke you rapidly deplete vitamin C
in your body. In fact, if you have smoked continuously you probably
have not had enough vitamin C for some time. Take a supplement daily to
replenish this much needed nutrient.
OLD CIGARETTES - Don't keep any cigarettes that can
still be smoked, but rather keep a container with water and some of your
old discarded cigarettes. If you ever have an urge for a cigarette,
open that container and take a big whiff. There is nothing more
disgusting than that smell and it will certainly deter you from wanting a
cigarette.
REDUCE CAFFEINE - Another strange effect of smoking is
that your body can not absorb caffeine the same way a non smoker does.
You can drink much more coffee without your body absorbing the caffeine
when you are a smoker. But when you quit, you will notice immediately
that the caffeine absorbs much faster. This is critical when you are
quitting, don't drink the same amount of coffee or sodas, it will make
you very jittery and uneasy. I would not eliminate it completely, but I
would recommend reducing your intake to a cup a day or a soda a day.
In most cases your body will tell you it has had enough, just heed the
warnings.
ICE CHIPS - When you have a crave, or even before you
have a crave, put an ice chip in your mouth and swirl it around. Be
sure to hold it in your gums and cheeks. This will help when you have a
craving.
POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS - The human mind is an incredibly
powerful thing. When you tell it you like smoking everyday, your
subconscious starts to believe it, remind you that you love smoking and
want a cigarette. In the same way, you can reprogram your subconscious
to not like smoking and in fact convince it that you hate smoking. As
often as possible repeat out loud "I hate smoking, I am a non smoker, I
love my new healthy lifestyle". In time your mind will convince your
subconscious that this is true. After all, it is true, you just have to
get your mind to believe it.
VISIT A HOSPITAL - There is nothing more powerful than
witnessing the effects of smoking long term in person. See the
devastation this drug has had on people and how it has ruined the lives
of so many. To see the suffering in person, to see the pain that this
can cause, will make the minor pangs of withdrawal seem like nothing.
Good luck on quitting. You have the power to stop smoking. You have
the desire to stop smoking. Now just do it, stop smoking now.
