When someone stops smoking , What happens?

 

When someone stops smoking their body instantly kicks off the healing process, discontinuing tobacco use is known to have a positive effect on reducing high blood pressure as well as reducing one's chances of getting lung or heart cancer. The timeline for seeing real benefits is faster than most people realize even though they may fear it will take a while to improve their health and well-being. In less than an hour from your last cigarette you'll see a change in your health, and it will only continue to improve. 

  Fast facts on quitting smoking: 

 These are the primary points to consider when quitting smoking, however, the primary source for more extensive information and supportive details is the main article. 

 -Ceasing smoking involves dismantling the addiction loop and rewiring the brain structure in order to eliminate desire for nicotine.

 -To increase their chances of success when trying to quit smoking it's important for smokers to have a plan in place that addresses both cravings and triggers.

 -After you smoke your last cigarette it only takes one hour for you to experience some benefits from quitting.

 -Reducing the likelihood of cancer and various illnesses is possible by stopping smoking as soon as possible.

  Timeline 

After 1 hour 

 In just 20 short minutes once you have stopped smoking your last cigarette, your heart rate will lower down and get back to its natural rhythm, so improved circulation is likely as a result of decreasing blood pressure. 

  After 12 hours 

 The presence of harmful compounds like carbon monoxide makes smoking cigarettes extremely injurious to health. Preventing access to vital tissues due to lack of air caused by high dosage inhalation is one way that this gas causes harm or fatality, so inhaling large amounts of substances quickly leads to lack of oxygen and suffocation. The cessation of smoking for only twelve hours triggers an internal response within one's physiological makeup causing it to detoxify and remove stubbornly accumulated excess carbon monoxide, so by decreasing its carbon monoxide levels back to normal range, this allows for increased oxygen supply. 

  After 1 day 

 Quitting tobacco causes the risk of experiencing a heart attack to decrease beginning from the first 24 hours. Smoking cigarettes can lower good cholesterol levels in the body, increase the possibility of getting coronary heart diseases, and make exercising difficult. Additionally, smokers are at a higher risk of developing high levels of hypertension and experiencing more frequent occurrences of dangerous obstructions forming in their bloodstream, both of which are primary factors associated with incidences involving strokes. A person who quits using cigarettes or other forms of tobacco can start experiencing a decrease in their blood pressure levels within 24 hours, which helps reduce the risk associated with developing heart diseases induced by high levels of BP resulting from years of smoking. Physical activity becomes more comfortable once the body's oxygen levels have risen in this short span of time promoting habits that promote good heart health.

  After 2 days 

 When someone smokes frequently it harms their ability to distinguish scents or flavors because it destroys the nerve endings related to those senses, however, as soon as 48 hours after quitting smoking a person might experience a greater ability to taste and smell due to nerve regeneration. 

After 3 days 

 A person's body will have no nicotine left after only 3 days of quitting smoking, but not having any nicotine in one's body would be good for their health, so they may still experience nicotine withdrawal after depleting their previous store. Most individuals who quit smoking habitually encounter moodiness and grumpiness accompanied by severe headaches along with urges for tobacco typically within 3 days of quitting due to bodily adjustments.

  After 1 month 

 A person's respiratory system can begin improving in as little as 30 days after quitting smoking or reducing exposure to poor air quality, and former smokers might experience reduced occurrences of coughing or shortness of breath as a result of improved lung health and increased lung capacity. An increase in athletic endurance could lead to a renewed capability of performing cardiovascular activities like running or jumping among former smokers. 

  After 1–3 months 

 Following the decision to quit smoking you can expect an improvement in your circulation that will last for several months. 

  After 9 months 

 Lungs can begin to significantly heal themselves approximately nine months after giving up smoking, and the damage that cigarettes caused to the fine hair like projecting cells of lungs known as cilia has now been repaired. Through their action of removing mucus from the lungs and assisting with infection prevention these structures play a crucial role. Many individuals who have quit smoking notice that during this time after quitting there is marked improvement on frequency of lung infection occurrence resulting from rectified functioning of previously damaged cilia. 

  After 1 year 

 Coronary heart disease becomes half as likely when someone stops smoking for a full year 

  After 5 years

Arteries and blood vessels narrow down due to various harmful toxins found in cigarette smoke, so the likelihood of developing blood clots is raised by those same toxins as well. In just 5 years of not smoking cigarettes your body can heal enough so that arteries as well as veins begin to expand, and the possibility of having a stroke is lowered when there's an increase in space and less chance for blood clots. Stroke risk is anticipated to decrease over a decade due to improvements in bodily recovery processes. 

  After 10 years 

 The probability of developing lung cancer and passing away due to the disease is almost halved in people who have abstained from smoking for ten years when compared to people still addicted to cigarettes, and the risk of getting throat or oral cancer and even pancreatic cancer have greatly reduced.

  After 15 years

If one quits smoking and remains smoke-free for fifteen years or more than the chance of developing coronary heart disease is equal to that of someone who never smoked, so in the same way as a non-smoker the danger of developing pancreatic cancer has decreased. 

  After 20 years 

 The hazard of death resulting from illnesses related to smoking such as lung disease and cancer decrease over time until it is comparable with an individual who has never smoked, and as well as that, the likelihood of having pancreatic cancer has fallen down to the same degree as someone who never smoked. 

  Benefits 

 Engaging in smoking poses a significant risk to one's health and may cause life-threatening complications or even fatality, but when someone stops smoking their body will eventually heal itself leading to a restoration in vitality akin to that of a non-smoker. Quickly noticeable effects may also include a decrease in inflammation, but reducing the risks associated with smoking like developing lung cancer and heart disease can take several years before they reach the levels recorded in people who do not smoke. Anyone who has developed the habit of smoking should consider quitting as it decreases risks and promotes better overall health in each year without cigarettes.

Quit smoking within 3 days, Day 3: the torment isn't permanent

Quit smoking within 3 days

Day 1: face up to your desire to smoke
Day 2: The choice is yours

Day 3: the torment isn't permanent

Well done. You're not smoking. If this is your second day, then your body is almost free of nicotine - but you might find today even more difficult, because the desire to smoke will enter your mind frequently.

Whether you stay off the cigarettes will depend on how effectively you manage this desire.

To beat the desire, you need to experience it. When you tried quitting before, you might have avoided parties, driving or whatever other activities have the strongest associations with smoking, but sooner or later your desire to smoke will return.

Whether you leave it for a day, a week or a month, the desire will resurface in circumstances where you always used to smoke. It will be just as strong however long you leave it, so it's best to tackle it right away.

What works best is to confront the urge to smoke. If you associate smoking with concentrating on a piece of work, try doing that work now.
If you think you can't enjoy yourself without cigarettes, go to a party - but don't drink so much that you lose all inhibition.
If you think you can't have a cup of coffee without a cigarette, don't switch to herbal tea because you'll be in trouble when you finally do have that cappuccino.
The more time you allow to elapse before you start retraining your brain, the more complacent you will have become - and the more vulnerable you will be to being ambushed by the mid-brain, which holds on to the association between smoking and these activities.
There has to be a first time for everything you do without having a cigarette in your hand, so start to chalk them up now.
Party; tick. Row with partner; tick. Difficult meeting; tick. Finishing a meal without eating seconds; tick.
Of course, doing it just once will not be enough to erase the connections built up over many years. Giving up smoking is not an event, it's a process, because the only way to set up new brain pathways is through repetition.
It won't be easy. The desire to smoke will be acute, but you will be prepared for it. At times, you may feel deprived, but those feelings will go away if you remind yourself, by using the sequence that you learnt yesterday, that you have a choice.
You could give in to the desire, or you could think of the reasons why you don't want a cigarette on this particular occasion.
What you cannot do is choose to smoke now and again, because that's not how an addiction works.
This, as with most things to do with smoking, has been thoroughly studied: 88 per cent of those who have even one puff after they have stopped will return to full-time smoking. On average, they have their second cigarette nine days later and return to full-time smoking after six weeks.
It's an all or nothing choice between being a smoker or an ex-smoker, but don't let that frighten you.
You aren't making a decision for the rest of your life. Stay in the present. It's not that you can never have another cigarette, it's just that you aren't going to have this one puff right now.
"I might get away with it," your mid-brain might tell you, but it's overwhelmingly likely that you won't. Then what? You could end up smoking every day of your life. Do you want to risk it?
Each time you refuse to satisfy the desire to smoke it will be a struggle but, over time, the desire will fade. You won't be in a permanent state of torment.
After a while, it may recur only for 30 seconds once every couple of months but, even if it strikes for only a few seconds, that's long enough to light a cigarette, so it's smart to be mentally prepared. In that instant, you don't want to forget how much you like not smoking.
REMEMBER
The longer you stay off smoking, the greater your chance of staying stopped. After a year, there is a very small chance of going back to it. But don't think about that too much; just do it for now.
Pay attention to the desire
Work through it using the sequence below
Don't get a false sense of security: it really is possible to smoke again
THE SEQUENCE "I have a desire to smoke. I have the freedom to smoke. One puff and I'll be smoking..."
To that, you can choose to add either "I choose to return to smoking" or "For now I choose not to act upon this desire so I can enjoy the benefits of not smoking.."

Quit smoking within 3 days, Day 2: The choice is yours

 Quit smoking within 3 days
 Day 1: face up to your desire to smoke

Day 2: The choice is yours


Today is quit day. Are you sure you want to stop smoking? If the answer is no, don't worry.

But why not give it a try? It doesn't have to be for ever, and if you don't like not smoking, you can go back to cigarettes at any time. It's your choice.

No matter what your wife or boyfriend says, you can, if you want, smoke for the rest of your life. There may well be unpleasant consequences, but it's your choice.

That's why I hope you followed the advice I gave yesterday about not telling anyone that you are even thinking of quitting.

If you do let on, you might find that others' words of encouragement pressure you.
You don't want that because it might make you rebel. Make sure that if you do stop smoking, it is because you want to be an ex-smoker.
It's important to keep reminding yourself that you have a choice, because that's what's going to get you through.
It will stop you from feeling desperate, reaching for a box of chocolates or drifting back into smoking. By consciously choosing not to smoke on each individual occasion, you will gradually retrain the reward-seeking mid-brain that prompts you to give it a dopamine buzz by lighting up another cigarette.
The way you calm that voice in your head is via your pre-frontal cortex, and you do it by acknowledging your freedom to return to smoking.
This is a challenging concept for most smokers. You don't ignore the desire to smoke - rather you predict it when you can, focus on it, even seek it out by taking a pack into the garden and confronting it. That way, you'll become really good at being in charge of it and won't be vulnerable to ambush.
But first, a warning about what to expect from your body and your brain once you stop smoking.
During the first 24 hours, while the nicotine is leaving your body, you may feel light-headed and strange. You may worry that you won't sleep so, to improve your chances, don't have caffeine late in the day. But whatever physical symptoms you experience, they will be short-lived, so don't be too concerned.
Concentrate instead on something that won't go away so quickly: the desire to smoke.
Cigarettes are the most addictive things on the planet so there's no escape.
Cravings are your mid-brain calling out for a dopamine buzz, just as Pavlov's dogs salivated when a bell was rung because they had been conditioned to associate the sound with food. The dogs were under a delusion that food and bells are linked - just as smokers believe that cigarettes do all kinds of good things for them, while ignoring the evidence that with every inhalation they not only get a small amount of nicotine in the bloodstream but also 4,000 other unnecessary and harmful chemicals.
You may, for example, believe that smoking helps you to wake up in the morning, while others credit it with helping them to sleep: well, it can't be both a stimulant and a sedative, can it?
Some people believe that smoking keeps them slim because it speeds up their metabolism and suppresses their appetite. Not only is that doubtful, but it's a strange delusion because not all smokers are slender.
Similarly, the sense of help and comfort that smokers experience when they smoke is nothing more than a placebo effect. If you give yourself the chance, you will discover that you can do all sorts of things without the support of cigarettes.
The way to discover this is to tame your buzz-seeking mid-brain. That's going to take time because, while your body will automatically adjust to not smoking, your mind will not.
It will remain the mind of a smoker who is not smoking, and it takes a real effort to alter those response pathways because your mind has been conning you for a long time.
Three cigarettes are enough to set up the conditioned reflex in the mid-brain and, if you've been smoking for some years, you will have reinforced that behaviour many thousands of times.
The good news is that each time you choose to say no to that desire it will get weaker.
Your pre-frontal cortex will gradually silence the mid-brain. If you see this as an experiment that you take one day at a time, each day you will be proving to yourself that your delusions about cigarette dependency are completely fictitious.
Stopping smoking by making a series of conscious choices not to smoke is, you will find, not only effective, but - though this may be hard to believe - enjoyable because you will feel powerful. It's the opposite of that feeling of being a victim that you had when you felt you couldn't smoke because you were trying to give up. This time you will know that you can smoke at any time, but you choose not to.
Take a minute to remind yourself what went wrong when you gave up before. Did you feel deprived, hungry or over-confident?
Whichever it was, be ready to fight those unhelpful feelings by using the pre-frontal cortex and the sequence below. This is your weapon in the fight against the mid-brain. Learn it and be prepared to say it to yourself every time you feel the desire to smoke which, to begin with, will be often.
"I have a desire to smoke. I have the freedom to smoke. One puff and I'll be smoking..." To that you can choose either to add "I choose to return to smoking", or "For now I choose not to act upon this desire so I can enjoy the benefits of not smoking..."
Each time you say the sequence, remind yourself of the benefits of accepting the desire without satisfying it: better health, more money, etc.
Don't throw away your cigarettes - you need to know you can have one at any time. Instead, create a barrier to grabbing one on impulse; perhaps tape up the pack, so that if you make a decision to smoke, it's conscious.
Welcome the discomfort of wanting to smoke because it is the healing process.

Quit smoking within 3 days, Day 1: face up to your desire to smoke

Quit smoking within 3 days

Day 1: face up to your desire to smoke

Most smokers have tried to give up, often many times. The feeling of failure, of being trapped by an addiction, is so depressing that it is hard to summon the enthusiasm once more. Perhaps you are waiting for the moment that you are certain you want to try again.

That could be a long wait. Addictions don't suddenly lose their grip so, as July 1 approaches, now is as good a time as any to kiss goodbye to an expensive, smelly, carcinogenic habit. Giving up without being 100 per cent sure of success might sound like a recipe for yet another failure but, paradoxically, it can be good to have an open mind when you attempt to quit.

Before you try again, I want you to think about why your past attempts haven't worked. You have almost certainly tried going cold turkey, throwing away a half-empty packet and avoiding the pub. Chances are that you've also tried hypnosis, acupuncture or nicotine replacement to escape those cravings.

Either method may have worked for a while - but then you returned to smoking. Don't be too hard on yourself. According to a 2005 study conducted by the Guy's, King's and St Thomas' School of Medicine in London, 85 per cent of those who try to give up each year fail. However, your chances of success will improve if you try the method that I used 27 years ago. Since then, I've taught it to thousands of smokers, the majority of whom said they were not smoking a year later. Tomorrow and the day after I will tell you how to stop smoking - and stay stopped - but first we are going to look at why so many fail.

I find that people fall into three groups, the first of whom I call the Martyrs. These quitters find giving up a desperately miserable experience. They think about cigarettes all the time. They are so cross without their prop that they feel a duty to start again, for their sake and their families.
The second group, which mostly consists of women, eats so much when they aren't smoking that they return to cigarettes because they can't afford a new wardrobe. Let's call them the Starving.
In the third group, I put those breezy types who are so good at giving up that they do it again and again. After a few weeks, the Blithe are doing so well that they let themselves have just one cigarette, perhaps at a party, and then, before they know it, they are smoking again.
The Martyrs, the Starving and the Blithe may sound very different, but they have something fundamental in common: they are all failing because they have not faced up to the core conflict of an addiction.
An addiction to cigarettes is viewed as physical, but the root of addiction lies in the mind. The physical dependence on nicotine is only a minor part - within 24 hours, the body can be cleared of the drug. Since most quitters last far more than a day before they succumb, we know it's not the body that leads them to smoke again, it's the brain. To be more precise, it's the mid-brain screaming out for the buzz it has come to associate with cigarettes.
The mid-brain is the impulsive, sensation-seeking, primitive area that becomes bathed in a neurochemical called dopamine when you repeat an action that, in the past, has provided excitement. It is dopamine that drives the addiction, setting up cravings that delude smokers into believing that they can't function without it.
That's rubbish, of course, but no one can simply wish away the delusion of being unable to concentrate, deal with emotional situations, or enjoy a party without cigarettes. Help is needed, and the best help is not a patch or an acupuncture needle, but the use of another part of the brain - the pre-frontal cortex, a more evolved area that makes choices.
Using one part of the brain to retrain the conditioned responses of another might sound like word play, but it is crucial. Most stop-smoking programmes don't engage the pre-frontal cortex (instead of offering choices, they dictate and prohibit) and that's why they may work for a few weeks, but will fail over the long term.
Let's look at the causes of failure in the groups. The Martyrs "know" that they don't function well without cigarettes. When denied their fix by a stop-smoking programme, they feel so ill and distracted that it "proves" their need to smoke. But it's not nicotine deprivation that makes them feel dreadful, it's feeling bereft of their freedom to smoke. Eventually they rebel and return to smoking.
The Starving think that they can conquer their desire for cigarettes by eating instead. This need not be manic bingeing - it could just be another helping of supper - but it's enough for them to start to balloon. That's depressing, so they usually return to their first addiction, smoking.
As for the Blithe, they bask in a false confidence that they have conquered the habit because they avoid situations in which they would normally smoke, as many quitting programmes advise them to do. It works until they get a parking ticket or get drunk, then they give in to the temptation that they've been avoiding.
All three groups have not faced up to their desire to smoke. Once they do, and engage the pre-frontal cortex in choosing whether to give in to that desire, failure turns into success.

Prepare to quit

    Write down your reasons for giving up
    Set a date for quitting but don't tell anyone of your plan (I'll explain why tomorrow)
    Delay lighting up every now and then so you can practise paying attention to your desire to smoke

A former smoker and over-eater, Gillian Riley has been teaching her successful techniques for stopping smoking since 1982. She is the author of several self-help books on the subject, and led courses on giving up cigarettes for 15 years. She is a regular guest on TV and radio 

How to Avoid Smoking Triggers?

You have just quit smoking cigarettes, but there are certain events or times of the day which make you lighting a fag. This can be at a party, when you are stressed or bored, or right after a meal. If you are thinking how to avoid smoking triggers, then you have come to the right place! These events are known triggers – things, places or people you link with smoking. Don’t worry as they happen with most smokers who try to quit smoking. However, with practice and patience, you can overcome these triggers and successfully kick the habit for good. Read on to know how to avoid smoking triggers and stay away from a smoking relapse.

• In the Morning – If you feel like smoking right after waking up, then don’t remain idle. Move your butt! Spit shine those boots, jog to take your mind off or take a shower. If you have to stay in the bed, then keep flavored toothpicks, straws or gum by the bedside to help you curb the strong urge to smoke.

• With Coffee – Hey, you can simply trade the job! If you have been tempted to buy that French silk coffee for sometime in the store and were scared to try it, now is the moment. Take the plunge without having any second thoughts! Switching over to any flavored decaf or coffees can help you kill the strong urge to smoke. You can simply try some teas. Hey, this is the perfect time to exchange your cracked cup for that stainless steel personalized travel mug.

• After a Meal – Here is the perfect dig! Freshen up! Get up from the table and brush your teeth. For extra clean feel, you can use some mouthwash or baking soda. Additionally, you can try eating meals in different places to help you to break the association between smoking and meals. You can eat you food at places which are no-smoking zones. You can also eat many small meals instead of having two large meals. This will keep your energy in balance as well as prevent the strong urge to smoke cigarettes. Also, avoid eating spicy or sugary foods.

• Due to High Stress Levels – Feeling overwhelmed? Overworked? Hey, get your game on! Go out and swim, play basketball or baseball. Or, simply strap on a heavy bag filled with rocks for a 10-mile run to release the stress. If you don’t want to go out, get a deck of cards and play with your friend or even alone. Even hobbies help to curb these triggers. Unable to get away? Just practice deep breathing exercise. Try to imagine filling you lungs with clean, fresh air.

• Due to Setting Boredom – You just have to reach out! You can talk to someone who can support you in your efforts to give up smoking. You can even try these measures – interact with other ex-smokers, read quit smoking stories or engage in live chat sessions. You can do some activity in order to keep yourself engaged. Just change your surroundings by walking around.

• After a Date – Man, you can simply veg out! After going out on a date, grab a plate of cheddar, celery sticks and grapes, instead of lighting a fag. A recent study found that smokers discovered that fags tasted worse after they ate dairy products, vegetables or fruit and after they drank juice or plain water. Hail to the power of cheese!

• Before Hitting the Bed – Just chill! If the mere sight of your comfy pillow makes you feel like lighting a fag, then don’t fret. Light a candle or incense and take in the soothing aroma instead. Play your favorite songs and allow yourself to relax. Just imagine a life without smoking. Just think and believe that you can do it!

I hope now you know how to avoid smoking triggers and stay away from a smoking relapse. Just remember, smoking is not good for your health. Ensure that you don’t fall back in the old trap of smoking!

Harmful Health Effects Of Smoking Cigarettes

The harmful health effects of smoking cigarettes presented in the list below only begin to convey the long term side effects of smoking.

Quitting makes sense for many reasons but simply put: smoking is bad for health.

Harmful Effects of Smoking

• Every year hundreds of thousands of people around the world die fromdiseases caused by smoking cigarettes -Smoking KILLS.
• One in two lifetime smokers will die from their habit. Half of these deaths will occur in middle age.
• Tobacco smoke also contributes to a number of cancers.

• The mixture of nicotine and carbon monoxide in each cigarette you smoke temporarily increases your heart rate and blood pressure, straining your heart and blood vessels.
• This can cause heart attacks and stroke. It slows your blood flow, cutting off oxygen to your feet and hands. Some smokers end up having their limbs
  amputated.
• Tar coats your lungs like soot in a chimney and causes cancer. A 20-a-day smoker breathes in up to a full cup (210 g) of tar in a year.
• Changing to low-tar cigarettes does not help because smokers usually take deeper puffs and hold the smoke in for longer, dragging the tar deeper into their lungs.
• Carbon monoxide robs your muscles, brain and body tissue of oxygen, making your whole body and especially your heart work harder. Over time, your airways swell up and let less air into your lungs.
• Smoking causes disease and is a slow way to die. The strain of smoking effects on the body often causes years of suffering. Emphysema is an illness that slowly rots your lungs. People with emphysema often get bronchitis again and again, and suffer lung and heart failure.
• Lung cancer from smoking is caused by the tar in tobacco smoke. Men who smoke are ten times more likely to die from lung cancer than non-smokers.
• Heart disease and strokes are also more common among smokers than non-smokers.
• Smoking causes fat deposits to narrow and block blood vessels which leads to heart attack.
• Smoking causes around one in five deaths from heart disease.
• In younger people, three out of four deaths from heart disease are due to smoking.
• Cigarette smoking during pregnancy increases the risk of low birth weight, prematurity, spontaneous abortion, and perinatal mortality in humans, which has been referred to as the fetal tobacco syndrome.

As mentioned earlier, this list can only begin to convey the harmful health effects of smoking cigarettes and its long term side effects. Next we consider reasons why smoking is bad for those around you in the effects of second hand smoke.

Quit Smoking Herbal

performed by several different methods. That's very good because we as persons are different both as biological beings but also as thinking and feeling individuals with different experiences and sets of values in our backgrounds. That's why we respond individually on the same treatments and why one single method isn't enough to meet all the demands from the marketplace.

The treatment to quit smoking by help of herbal remedies isn't that exclusive considering that remedies based on plants are common in many other treatment circumstances.

If we look at quit smoking treatment and what to choose, the plants used with good results in this connection are Lobelia, Mullein, Horehound and Coltsfoot. Different parts of the plants are collected and combined in mostly two principle types of pharmaceutical forms. These are as tablets and in some form of inhalers.


Tablets

It's a known fact that smokers among many other problems caused by their smoking habits also very often are affected with deficiency problems such as low level of vitamins and some minerals. Therefore, tablets used to cure or quit smoking are combined with some vitamins and minerals. Take for example vitamin E (tokoferol) which is working as an antioxidant. Considering some of the effects cigarette smoke have on the mucous membrane in your airways the adding of tokoferol is of course beneficial.

Some of the herbs used are also known to have beneficial effect upon unpleasant symptoms like insomnia, depression and other nervous sensations. The transition from a smoker to a non-smoker status is very dramatic for your body and as a result of that your temper will fluctuate.


Inhalers

One way of using herbal remedies is to administer the smell and aroma from the combination of mixture in a practical form. Inhalers can be very easy to use and just the easy and uncomplicated handling make it accessible when ever the longing for a cigarette threatens to be a problem. The inhalers have a definite roll to play in the acute situation. One can say that the inhalers for many smokers are a perfect solution to the problem. After some episodes cured with inhaling of the fresh smell of herbs the change to the much more aggressive and destructive gases from a burning cigarette might just be the impulse that make the decision final.

The bottom line regardless of all postponements of the final and definitive stopping is that most smokers out there in reality want to stop. They just longing for some pushing in the right direction!


Pseudo Cigarettes

In cases where the physical manipulation of the cigarette itself is the hardest part to break there is a solution in form of the pseudo cigarette. It's of course a much better habit to take up in a stressful situation than to light a cigarette! Both for the smoker personally and also for the surroundings!

The pseudo cigarettes function is very alike the normal inhalers and the only distinction is the cigarette-like handling itself.

The thought that it's possible to break the habit with burning tobacco and inhale the gases and change this destructive action into inhaling the smell of natural herbs is very comforting indeed!


Combination of therapies

When looking at alternative ways of quit smoking one has to remember that even if every method available in itself is effective there are many cases, probably most of them where a combination of methods are beneficial. When thinking in these lines one can surely say that the quit smoking herbal way probably are one of the safest methods to combine with other methods.
