 Smokers in general underestimate the power of processed, chemical-laden foods, chemical-laden drinks and chemical-laden personal care products to put their body in an acidic state, which makes them rely on nicotine even more for temporary relief of their 'chemical hangover.' When smokers do finally quit, whether by cold turkey in a single day or by means of some program or medication, the number one event that sends a smoker back to the 'well' is stress. Hands down, a walloping of stress comes along and most new non-smokers say the same thing: 'I sure could use a cigarette right about now.' Little do most people know, including non-smokers with bad eating habits, that toxic food, drinks and skin care can lead a person right into depression, anxiety, panic attacks and basic ill health. Certain combinations of food additives, like MSG and aspartame for example, can send a person's CNS (central nervous system) into a tail-spin and drive migraine headaches, IBS and more. Plus, GMO foods wreck your immunity, because nothing kills your good bacteria (flora) in your gut faster than pesticides and insecticides. Add in some bleached foods and wash it down with some fluoridated water and what have you got? A very NEGATIVE feeling person who loses enthusiasm and the ability to deal with anything stressful. When they get overwhelmed, most new non-smokers will either share, bum or take a drag from someone's cigarette at a bar or a house party and then that's 'all she wrote.' Within weeks or even days, they're back to a pack a day or more. Avoiding relapse Cancer survives ONLY in an acidic environment, meaning inside your low-pH body, and blood and tissues. Cancer dies when your cells get oxygen and can breathe, becoming alkaline. What deprives your cells of oxygen? Sodium benzoate, canola oil and GMO pesticide-laden corn, soy and sugar beets (MSG) choke your mitochondria and mutate your genes. Common chemicals in personal care products and cosmetics cause cancer, like phthalates, parabens and sodium lauryl sulfate. There's lead in lipstick and arsenic in conventional chicken. There are hormones in milk and MSG in vaccines . Is it too overwhelming for you too keep up? You know what's too overwhelming -- chemotherapy, radiation, surgery and BAD advice . Western Medicine is full of bad advice. It's how the medical-industrial complex stays in business. What gives your cells oxygen? Organic vegetables, organic fruit and real spring water. For power boosters, eat kale and hemp seed oil. Then get some organic spinach, organic chards and aloe. Check into the amino acids, especially the branched-chains (BCAAs). Use baking soda to bring up your alkalinity and take Epsom salt baths to pull toxins from the body. When you quit smoking, guard your 'food gates' against chemicals! Avoid consuming white foods that are bleached -- like white flour, rice, sugar, bread and pasta, for starters -- and consuming ammonia -- which is found in most conventional meat, because the CAFO farmers and butchers use it to kill bacteria. Remember, 'junk science' is DESIGNED to hook you and your kids on refined sugar, high-fructose corn syrup and monosodium glutamate -- MSG. It's designed to make you feel like you need medicine or cigarettes to lessen the anxiety, the depression, the stress. But you don't. You need nutrition. You need to build your nutrient base and alkalize your body. No relapse for you - instead you'll be smoke-free for life! The very second you decide to quit smoking, you must do these two things: replace and replenish. That means you must replace your bad behavioral rituals of breathing in toxins with breathing in fresh air during your 'breaks.' You must replace that 'hand-to-mouth' ritual with organic snacks and spring water. You must replenish your nutrient base with organic vegetables, fruits and proper supplementation via superfoods and Health Ranger-recommended minerals. This is your journey, and you have complete control. Make it a healthy, happy, sharing journey. Quit smoking naturally now. ( http://programs.selfnews.com )
