Quit Smoking with a Diet to Lose Weight Could be The Most Successful Method
For people who have the bad habit of smoking, rather than know about how harmful it is about his health snuff and other chemicals in cigarettes, quitting is also a challenge and requires willpower and determination.
A nicotine addiction creates, plus fear (sometimes true and sometimes not so much), and even more powerful in women, that if he stops smoking can gain weight.
According to research conducted by scientists from the School of Medicine, University of Feinberg, matching the abandonment of snuff with a reduced calorie diet may just be the key to success.
These researchers found that women who quit smoking while entering treatment for weight control can not only achieve better results with the balance but also with the goal of leaving the snuff.
In general, quitting smoking can be linked to weight gain for two reasons: nicotine reduces hunger, while increasing the metabolism of individuals. These two facts, coupled with the anxiety that people experience when they first leave the bad habit can lead to weight gain.
The lead author of this American study, Bonnie Spring, said that a woman can benefit more by making two decisions at once.
To make this work took data of 2,233 women who smoke. After a series of relevant observations, scientists could conclude that the females who were undertaking treatment at all, including smoking cessation such as weight loss, were up to 29 percent of success in quitting their addiction the short term, and 23 percent in the long run.
But even more, it happened that these women gained less weight than their counterparts who only followed a smoking cessation therapy.
