We get life with an indispensable condition; We should bravely protect it until the last minute. -Dickens
As we all know, smoking is bad for human health, but it is difficult to quit because of smoking addiction. Scientists suggest that if you want to quit smoking easily, people might as well start with diet. Eat more foods rich in vitamin C < P > According to relevant data, for every cigarette smoked, 25 mg of vitamin C will be lost in the human body. Therefore, smokers can often eat some fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C, which can eliminate nicotine in the body and improve cellular immunity, but also supplement the content of vitamin C in the body. Drinking tea regularly < P > Some compounds in smoke can lead to thickening of arterial intima, decrease of gastric acid secretion and increase of blood sugar. Catechins contained in tea can prevent cholesterol from depositing on the blood vessel wall, increase gastrointestinal peristalsis and reduce blood sugar and urine sugar, etc. At the same time, the diuretic and detoxifying effect of tea can also make some toxic substances in smoke be discharged with urine, shortening its residence time in the body.
Drink milk often

A recent study in a hospital in Dublin, Ireland shows that eating fish can reduce some of the damage caused by smoking. This study found that amino acids contained in fish can stop arteriosclerosis and reduce the chances of smokers dying of heart disease and stroke. Therefore, smokers should eat more fish food containing unsaturated fatty acids to reduce the cholesterol content in blood.
