Smokers Diet

June 17, 2008

Do you think a diet can really compensate the harm of smoking? The question is very tough as no diet can compensate the harms caused by smoking it can be used as a little compensation. As everybody knows “Cigarette Smoking Is Injurious To Health” and even on the packets of cigarettes bear this statement yet people continue smoking. Now a days smoking has become a fashion accessories but fashion should not cause the health. To save the life following diet for smokers can prove beneficial:

Vitamin C- Vitamin C can prove the best food item as diet for smokers. People who smoke or cigarettes or any kind of tobacco must add vitamin c as a major portion of their diet. Smoker needs 400% extra vitamins than non-smokers. Smokers can take the fruits as papaya, guava, orange, mango, kiwifruit, blackcurrants and strawberries. The vegetables he can take are red pepper, green pepper, broccoli, cauliflower, sprouts and tomatoes. One more option they have fruit juices- smokers can choose cranberry, lemon, orange or grapefruit juices to save from harmful causes of smoking.

Increase your Antioxidants
-Another thing for smokers’ diet is antioxidant intake. Smoker should eat 2tsp of wheat germ oil as it is rich in vitamin e and also 6 Brazil nuts as this is rich in selenium to their diet. He should switch from tea or coffee ideally green tea.

Protective Carotenoids- Carotenoids are pigments found in plants. All carotenoids are antioxidants, the most common example being beta-carotene. It is found in green plants as spinach, as well as orange and yellow plants, such as carrots, sweet potato and melons. Clinical trials indicate that when consumed in foods – not supplements – beta carotene reduces certain precancerous symptoms.

Reduce Sodium –A smoker should lessen the quantity of sodium in his food. Most of the physician’s advice not to add too much salt to food even tries to take the salad without salt. Check the food labels and always try to take low sodium or without sodium food.

Say bye To Smoking- You can try dozens of health tips, thousands of diets for smokers but one important thing that you can’t deny is that quit smoking benefits you the most and nothing can do the same. Smoking and cigarette are on the top rank to cause harm to the body. So, save your health and body and say bye to smoking.
