Why do people generally put on
weight after they quit
smoking?
Most smokers eat junk food nearly
every day of their smoking lives because they know the cigarettes are already
destroying most of their "healthy living" so why bother to eat right,
right? There are 45 million smokers in the United
States and Americans eat about 50 billion
hamburgers a year, so go figure. McDonald's alone sells 75 burgers every
second of every day. Fast food, beer and aspirin are a typical consumption
regimen for many smokers, who don't sleep well, have sicknesses last longer
than non-smokers, and have that constant hack cough. So no matter what weight a
smoker may be "weighing in" at while smoking, that weight is likely
to skyrocket after coming off nicotine. The hourly or bi-hourly stimulant keeps
many smokers skinny or at the weight they were when they started smoking, but
there's more health detriment in store for the "ex-smoker" who
doesn't understand a thing about nutrition.

Nicotine is a stimulant and a
sedative - it kills appetite, but it feeds long term depression
Nicotine is a heavily used
addictive drug and the leading yet preventable cause of disease, disability and
death in the United States.
Ninety percent of lung cancer cases involve cigarette addiction. So exactly
what is nicotine? Nicotine is a naturally occurring clear liquid that turns
brown when burned and smells like the tobacco when exposed to air. It has very
complex and UNPREDICTABLE effects on the brain and body. http://www.psychologytoday.com/conditions/nicotine
Forget for a second about how
nicotine makes smokers feel while they smoke it, and let's talk about the long
term "feeling" that keeps them reeling backwards, losing not only the
benefits of healthy living but the drive and motivation to fuel a progressive
lifestyle. It has long been known that smokers have higher rates of depression
than nonsmokers, but research reveals a deeper link, one of a causal
relationship. Depression, quite often, leads to uncontrolled eating
"binges" and a "lack of caring" about much at all. When
smokers quit, they still have a need to feel enthusiastic, and without changing
what they eat, that "enthusiasm" may be for convenient junk-science
addictions like cheap chocolate, fried foods and just plain eating to
occupy their time.
Solution: Eat more vegetables -
the organic ones
If you recently quit smoking or are
about to, you can get healthy and lose weight or simply maintain proper weight,
without medication, surgery, or consuming artificial sweeteners, that are all
usually very detrimental to holistic health. Start first by reading articles
and books that talk about oxygen killing cancer cells. Organic vegetables feed
your cells oxygen and can make you feel "full" even when your stomach
is only half full. This is a strategy. Also, true spring water alkalizes an
ex-smoker's highly acidic body and brings energy and vitality into the new
equation, fueling the innate desire to exercise. This is also a strategy.
Strategies for obtaining and maintaining optimal health can be very simple.
That leads us to talking about omega 3's (healthy fats) and how vitamin B
complex can balance the central nervous system. This is a key third strategy to
never putting on unhealthy weight after quitting smoking.
Omega 3's and vitamin B complex
can help eliminate stress, anxiety, and depression
The 7,000
chemicals in cigarettes disrupt the CNS, the central nervous system. This
creates anxiety, nervousness and doubt. Nicotine provides just enough kick to
make smokers feel normal for 20 minutes. Little do most smokers know when they
quit, that specific natural foods, vitamins and supplements boost dopamine and
serotonin production, and balance the central nervous system. Vitamin B
complex, mucuna, and cabbage are great examples of this.
Also,
many nutrients, such as the B vitamins, are critical to proper brain function.
In fact, fatty acid deprivation works against optimal brain power. The brain is
almost entirely composed of fatty acids. Insert one avocado into your daily
diet. Buy some coconut oil and flax seed oil. These will replace whatever salad
dressings you were using. Remember to rotate your greens, like collard,
spinach, kale and mustard greens. It's no huge secret this works. If you smoke,
become a non-smoker today, and never put on a single pound of unwanted,
unneeded weight, in fact, find your perfect balance with natural news.
"It's
no secret that long-term diet and nutrition choices have an effect on the way
we look and feel; but new studies show that nutrition can also affect the way
we think. As it turns out, there really is such a thing as 'food for
thought.'”
Here are
great sources on all of this:
Weight
Management: A Special Report
There is a 75-year "CON" known as
Western Medicine, but it's a hush-hush topic in the news and in newspapers and
magazines. Although medical doctors and surgeons are experts at fixing broken
bones or removing animal fat from clogged arteries, the "pharmaceutical
nation" known as the
USA is caving in on itself, but nobody is allowed to talk about
it on TV, or they lose all their sponsors. There is also a world of medicine
known as organic food, but some people want to cook it, fry it, boil it or
broil it, or even worse, grill it out, and that LIVE food becomes DEAD food,
useless to the body, which needs nutrients for immunity, cellular health,
vitality and sustainability.

Is there a "CANCER INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX"
in the USA?
So why don't oncologists talk about RAW foods,
which are full of nutrients, oxygen for the cells (the cure for cancer) and the
RAW REGIMEN when people are on their "death beds" or "sent home
to die" with pancreatic cancer, liver cancer or cancer of some other organ
that you have to have to survive? When cancer spreads to the lymph nodes or the
spinal column, why don't doctors, surgeons and oncologists tell their patients
about these RAW foods that give them the best chance at recovery? And I mean
permanent remission and recovery. Are these "Western Medicine"
practitioners evil, money-grabbing cons or are they just ignorant, miseducated
and unknowing? How could that be? How could you be trained to do surgery or
read lab results and not know ONE THING about nutrition? Do some of them know but
are not saying because their income would drop to about 25% of what they make
now, using dangerous chemicals to treat a chemical-driven disease? No
oncologist in the world suggests medicinal mushrooms, and take a big guess why!

The answer to every one of the questions above is to just listen to the people
who DO KNOW about RAW foods and can tell wonderful stories of their own
recovery from deadly cancer and why they chose nutrition over chemo, surgery
and radiation. Learn from honest souls who share their most personal journeys,
through and past the "cons" of the cancer-industrial complex.
Consider the fact that even scientists have found a natural cure for cancer,
and people TESTIFY in court that it works, even for children with
"terminal" cancer: (
http://www.burzynskiclinic.com).
Natural News has a few other heart-warming stories about real people who
survived "lethal" cancer and lived to share their stories with the
world: Jay Kordich, known as the "father of vegetable juicing," says
raw foods are responsible for overcoming his own bladder
cancer. One of his followers,
John Kohler, has been on a raw food diet since 1995, primarily enjoying juices.
Not only did he survive his spinal meningitis, but he also lost weight and is
living life more healthfully than ever.

Don't Eat Cancer!
Put it
this way: if you were getting sick from moldy bread, would you look for a cure
from a vaccine, or medicine, or consider surgery, while you kept on eating more
moldy bread every day? It's not that hard to filter chemicals from your daily
intake. Check out
Fooducate - the free phone app that scans the barcodes
of foods and drinks, tells you if it's GMO and rates it for quality! (

Check out great RAW FOOD regimens: (
http://www.naturalnews.com).
One-and-a-half million people every year fight cancer and need to know about
RAW foods, and we could end this "search for the cure" that the
masses are CONNED into believing is worthwhile. The cure is here! The cure
lives in nutrition. Appreciate the fact that... if you don't "eat"
cancer, it doesn't "eat" you.

stop smoking for good, the process is physical and emotional. There is much
more to quitting than just breaking the nicotine addiction, including
behavioral patterns and nutritional deficiencies that must be addressed. You
need modern solutions to "modernized"
