Most important is join a smoking cessation program. Blue Cross/Blue Shield has a free program that offers free patches and a counselor. If needed get a prescription for wellbrutin, it helps along with patches, gum, etc. Drink lots of water whenever you can, chew gum, suck on candies (sugarless)and try to remove yourself from smoking situations until you feel comfortable being around them again.

Alot of people need assistance in the cessation of smoking. I would reccomend Acupuncture which has a very good track record of helping people get off cigarettes. You can also go to your local health food store and ask for some supplements that are specific for people detoxifying from cigarettes.
Drink alot of water to flush it out along with fresh pressed juices such as carrot-apple-beet, etc. Keep your diet clean from junk foods, consume alot of organic fresh vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds to nourish yourself during this time and in generalr Good Luck and don't give up you will be so much healthier without cigarette smokingi Bonnie Marsh, ND >

Cayenne Pepper desensitizes respiratory tract cells to irritants from cigarette smoke.
Valerian root can be used to help reduce the nervousness and anxiety that may accompany nicotine withdrawal.
Ginger Causes perspiration, which helps the body to shed some of the poisons ingested through smoking. Vitamin B complex 100 mg daily can also help control the nervousness that come from nicotine withdrawl.
Vitamin B12 1,000 mcg twice daily. Increases energy, needed for improving liver function. I hope this info can be of help to you.
