Lemme remind you how Nicotine in cigarettes affect you

When taken in small amounts, nicotine causes pleasant feelings and distracts the user from unpleasant feelings. This makes the tobacco user want to use more.

Nicotine also gives a little bit of an adrenaline rush not enough to notice, but enough to speed up the heart and raise blood pressure.

Stopping or cutting back on tobacco causes symptoms of nicotine withdrawal. Withdrawal is both physical and mental. Physically, your body is reacting to the absence of nicotine. Mentally, you are faced with giving up a habit, which calls for a major change in behavior. Emotionally, you might feel like as if you’ve lost your best friend.

I understand that it is not easy to give it up the habit but the long term effect of nicotine includes increased risk of cardiovascular disease and cancer, particularly of the lungs.

Personal tip for stopping an addiction is reducing it one stick at a time.
If you take 6 cigarettes everyday reduce it to 5 then to 4, then 3 till you have no need for it anymore.

Stay committed and remember cancer!

With continuous engagement, insufficient breast milk formulation for exclusive breast feeding will belong to the past.  A lot of women often complain about inadequate/lack production after delivery, hence forcing them to formula feed the baby and depriving the baby of colostrum and exclusive breast feeding during the first few days of childbirth . This is can however be prevented by frequent massage of the breast at the pre-natal period which is of utmost importance as every part of the human body has been wired to the brain which serves as the central power plant sending signals and feelings to the entire part of the body. This revelation was presented by UNICEF Nutrition specialist Ms Phelomena Irene during her address in YOLA on efforts to reduce the malnutrition plague in the country.
