Stay Away from Nicotine After
      Smoking Cessation
               By

   http://2stopsmokingtips.com
Introduction
If you have successfully dropped off
cigarettes, one advice we want to give you is:
don’t feed your body nicotine again. If you do
so, you will take your body back to square
one. Seriously, this is one advice you mustn’t
take with a pinch of salt. Cling to it as if your
entire life depended on it. In a way, your life
depends on it because nicotine kills.
You Don’t Need NRTs to Quit
• Everyday, we get bombarded by adverts of
  nicotine replacement products and most smokers
  have fallen prey to such adverts. The truth is: you
  don’t need a nicotine substitute such as the
  patch, gum, inhaler, lozenge to cease smoking.
  You can achieve a non-smoking status without
  them. Nasty cigarette cravings are the reason
  most smokers turn to nicotine replacement
  therapies (NRTs) but they (cravings) can be
  overpowered with these natural methods.
Why You Should Not Feed Your Body
          Nicotine Again
• Simple: if you have been able to shun
  cigarettes, a source of nicotine, you don’t
  need nicotine in another form (patches, gum,
  inhaler, lozenge) to get through smoking
  cessation. Now, come to think of it. How can
  you use the same substance you’re trying to
  abstain from to successfully cease smoking?
  There’s a sort of contradiction here. I just
  hope you’re able to see it.
Why You Should Not Feed Your Body
         Nicotine Again(2)
• Secondly, you and I know how painful the
  withdrawal process is. It turns many a smoker
  trying to quit into a wretch. The first 72 hours
  after smoking cessation is usually the worst with
  one craving coming up immediately after another.
  It feels like the end has come. Most times, the
  withdrawal drags for 2 weeks and if you’ve
  successfully gone through all that and come out
  triumphant, why do you want to subject your
  body to another withdrawal torture?
Why You Should Not Feed Your Body
         Nicotine Again(3)
• Thirdly, the use of nicotine substitutes throws
  up common side effects like nausea, digestive
  problems, dizziness, heartburn, headaches
  and inability to sleep. Skin irritation can also
  occur with the patch. So, what are talking
  about here? Is this not a case of, from frying
  pan to fire? You’re trying to avoid a substance
  by stopping smoking but the prescribed drug
  to help you quit also brings up several side
  effects!
Why You Should Not Feed Your Body
         Nicotine Again(4)
• Another thing is; NRTs are a drain on your
  financial resources. When you get addicted to
  them, they draw you back by hundreds of dollars.
  Stop wasting your hard-earned money on
  nicotine alternatives. they simply don’t work.
• As you try to abstain, you may find though the
  idea of smoking just one cigarette seductive, but
  just know that, that single puff can lead you back
  to where you are coming from – your 2-pack-a-
  day habit within a week or less.
Why You Should Not Feed Your Body
         Nicotine Again(5)
• The usual thing is to think you can get away with
  that single puff, but, you cannot. You’re dragging
  yourself back to square one. So,don’t put nicotine
  into your body, or you will lose everything that
  you fought for in the blink of an eye.
• In the same vein, nicotine replacement products
  should be avoided at all costs. If you’re going to
  use the nicotine patch, gum, inhaler, or lozenge,
  don’t even bother. Just go smoke cigarettes. They
  are no different.
Why You Should Not Feed Your Body
         Nicotine Again(6)
• Your body doesn’t recognize the nicotine as
  coming from a cigarette, patch, gum, lozenge
  or inhaler. It doesn’t even care where the
  nicotine comes from once its’ desire for
  nicotine is assuaged. So, you may as well just
  smoke and stop deceiving yourself about
  quitting a substance and still finding another
  way to put it into your body.
Why You Should Not Feed Your Body
         Nicotine Again(7)
• Do NOT feed your body nicotine in any form.
  Ultimately, nicotine replacement therapies will
  lead you back to cigarettes if you try to use any of
  them. This is because you have not dealt with the
  core connection you have with tobacco.
• The only reason why you smoke is nicotine
  addiction so staying addicted to nicotine (by using
  NRTs) is going to raise your inclination to want to
  smoke and put yourself back to square one – a
  smoker.
NRTs Don’t Work
• If you are not addicted to nicotine, you will
  have no desire to smoke. So, the primary thing
  is to severe the bond between you and
  nicotine, instead of just going ahead to apply
  nicotine alternatives.
• As if to add salt to injury, a recent study claims
  nicotine replacement therapies don’t work.
  This prompted our earlier article questioning
  the effectiveness of NRTs or otherwise.
NRTs Don’t Work(2)
• Even though the patch, gum or lozenges are
  said to be devoid of the injurious chemicals
  cigarettes have, it’s still not safe to use them.
  They are best avoided. Even though they sell
  over a billion dollars yearly, they are just as
  addictive as cigarettes and many a smoker
  who used them ended up complaining about
  being addicted to them.
Avoid NRTs At All Costs
• Avoid them at all costs, see them the same
  way you see cigarettes and treat them the
  same way you would treat a cigarette. The
  drug in them is no different. Nicotine is highly
  addictive, no matter the form in which it is
  delivered. My message to you therefore is:
  don’t just quit cigarettes. Quit the substance
  that is found in cigarettes. Stop using nicotine.
  This is imperative. This is vital.
Avoid NRTs At All Costs(2)
• Don’t just quit smoking or chewing
  tobacco…..stop using the drug found in
  cigarettes altogether. Avoid using nicotine in
  any form.
• Don’t feed your body nicotine, ever again.
• Quit cigarettes and tobacco, abstain from
  using nicotine, and go live a happy and
  healthy life of freedom; freedom which knows
  no bounds.
Enjoy Your New Found Freedom!
• Freedom with your money, time, health,
  relationships, you just name it. That is what
  you stand to gain from smoking cessation, so,
  please, don’t sabotage it.
• I bet you didn’t know the benefits of smoking
  cessation; if you did, you would guard your
  new found freedom and happiness jealously
  instead of risking it with nicotine substitutes.
• A word to the wise, they say, is enough!
