May 31st is World No Tobacco Day, and this year’s theme is “The Threat of Tobacco to the Environment.”
It is well known that smoking is harmful to the body, which should be known to everyone.
Although my country has acceded to the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control as early as 2005, a series of tobacco control regulations have also been issued accordingly, and even the news reports from time to time “the The most stringent smoking ban in history.”
But in the context of the declining global tobacco epidemic, my country’s tobacco production is still increasing.
The proportion of people smoking, the rate of young people trying to smoke, and the rate of existing smoking are still increasing year by year, the smoking rate of women is also increasing, and even the smoking rate of doctors has not decreased.
How many people did these 3 misunderstandings about smoking harm?
Many smokers are not ignorant of the dangers of smoking, but have formed a habit. Not smoking will cause various discomforts in the body. It is very difficult for patients to quit smoking. Only people with strong willpower can complete the work of quitting smoking.
For smokers, many people have the following three misunderstandings. If they are not corrected in time, it is recommended that smokers understand in detail, not only can they recognize the harm of smoking, but also help smokers quit smoking. can also play an auxiliary role.
I. Is smoking equal to enjoying life?
Most smokers see smoking as a pleasure, just as a child enjoys a snack.
Smoking will control people’s nerves and stimulate the brain to release dopamine, thus making people feel relaxed and happy. People will produce dopamine when they are happy, but this is due to the normal function of the body.
If you just want to rely on smoking to generate this kind of happiness, then you don’t have to, because it can only bring temporary happiness and does not solve the problem in essence.
If you use this method for a long time, it will also disturb the body’s mechanism of releasing dopamine, prompting you to smoke continuously, and this enjoyment will cause great harm to your body.
For smokers, if they want to be happy, they should essentially solve the problem.
Exercise is also a process of releasing dopamine. Although the process of exercise will be a bit tiring, it is a very healthy form of enjoyment. It is recommended that smokers try exercise. Relaxing the mood can also have a very good effect, long-term adherence, smoking addiction can also be quit.
Second, smoking can help you concentrate?
I believe many people have heard the saying that smoking can help you concentrate.
Studies show no direct relationship between smoking and attention. For smokers, smoking is often an excuse, just a way for them to escape the stress of work, not to concentrate.
If you try to focus your attention in this way, it will affect the efficiency of your work.
Not only that, smoking will cause irreversible damage to the human brain, making the human brain unresponsive, which seriously affects the intelligence level of smokers, thereby reducing their work efficiency.
Third, is smoking after meals good for the body?
People often say that a cigarette after a meal is like a fairy.
There is no scientific basis for this statement, and smoking after meals is more harmful to the human body.
The most abundant substance in tobacco is nicotine. When smoking, nicotine will enter the human body, stimulate the gastrointestinal system of the body, and disturb the intestinal flora, thus affecting the digestion of smokers. system, causing smokers to experience indigestion, bloating, and abdominal pain.
If the patient does not pay attention, it will easily lead to the deterioration of the disease and lay a hidden danger for the occurrence of gastric cancer.
The dangers of smoking are only more or less
< p>Many old smokers who know that smoking is harmful to health, want to quit smoking but can’t quit, so they often use various methods to replace cigarettes, such as electronic cigarettes, tea cigarettes, or small, slender, soft and sweet ladies cigarette.
But no matter how thin the cigarettes are or how beautifully the packaging is, it cannot change the iron evidence that smoking is harmful to health.
And no matter what kind of skins these cigarettes are replaced with, they can’t change the harm of their own nicotine, and the harmful substances released after burning are not less than ordinary cigarettes.
At the same time, some smokers often increase the number of cigarettes in order to get more nicotine , suck deeper, otherwise you will feel that you are not pumping properly.
As for cigarettes, our mouths are worn out, but it’s still the old saying—-
Smoke, quit it early!
