5 Amazing foods to flush Nicotine from the body

OHMYGOSSIP — Smoking is a rough habit that can cause some serious damage to your physical and mental health – unfortunately, it’s also highly addictive and hard to quit. The addictive properties come back to nicotine, the central ingredient / drug that’s primarily responsible for the rapid development of the tobacco industry.

It’s important to keep in mind that while reducing your cigarette use can reduce your risk of lung cancer, it still does nothing when it comes to lowering your risk of heart attacks and throat conditions (e.g. bronchitis). The best solution is to quit, and quit for good. So, do you need some help getting that nicotine out of your body so you can silence those cravings?

Believe it or not, these 5 foods can help you do it:

1. Oranges
These lovable citrus fruits are packed full of vitamin C, which increases your white blood cell count. This helps your body fight against the toxic substances that come from inhaling cigarette smoke, and even increases your metabolism to flush the nicotine from your bloodstream.

Note: Oranges can also lower your stress levels, making it easier to manage your cravings after making the decision to quit.

2. Kiwi Fruit
Believe it or not, smoking actually lowers your counts of vitamins A, C, and E. Filling up on healthy fruits and vegetables (especially kiwi) can help replenish these vitamins and bring your body back to a nutritional balance.

3. Water
As one of the most underrated drinks in the world, water fights against the internal damage caused by nicotine (and it can even help manage withdrawal symptoms). Did you know that nicotine actually dehydrates you? By drinking 8-2 cups of water a day (minimum), you can help rehydrate your body and increase your metabolism to flush the drug out of your body.

4. Spinach
Research shows that smokers tend to have a lower supply of folic acid than non-smokers. This acid is needed for maintaining muscle, nerve, and brain health; thankfully, there’s a huge supply of it in spinach.
The benefits don’t end there either. Spinach is also packed full of vitamins and other important nutrients that you need to balance a strong overall health. Did you know that eating spinach can even make smoking taste bad? It’s a great vegetable to eat if your goal is to finally break the habit.

5. Carrots
Overall, carrots are a great choice for quitting smoking, but drinking the juice only adds to the effectiveness. A cup of carrot juice every day will fill you up with vitamins A, B, C, and K, which can help flush nicotine quantities out of your body.

Note: Keep in mind that nicotine has a damaging effect on the skin. Conversely, carrots are known to be amazing when it comes to maintaining skin health, so why not remedy the damage?

Again, smoking is not an easy habit to quit. For some people, it remains a problem to the point that it’s too late to make a change without suffering some serious consequences. If you need help, small changes like these are a great place to start. Find what works for you and keep at it.
