You know how nicotine keeps smokers addicted? Well, aside from it having a direct effect on the lungs, it also has an effect on our brain. When we
intake or inhale nicotine, the body registers it on our brain. The brain needs to make space for nicotine so it replaces or kills other hormones.
This gives us different sensations when we smoke. Some say that smoking cigarettes helps them relax. This is because the body craves for more nicotine when it is tensed. Some would also testify that smoking helps them think and
work better. This is also because the brain is lacking hormones needed for it to function better; and nicotine replaces these missing hormones.
It is hard to go cold turkey for smokers because, like all other addictions, the body is hooked on the chemicals brought on by these vices.
The world is slowly taking responsible actions to save its citizens from cigarette smoking and its related diseases. Governments are passing anti-smoking laws. They are imposing larger taxes to these products. They are placing images of the bad effects of smoking on cigarette packs.
If you are one of the billion who is hooked on smoking, try getting a patch or a gum to help you quit. The number of
cigarette sticks you stop smoking is the number of three minutes you can add to your life. Remember also, that it's all in the mind.
