  • Avoid Triggers 

As you begin the process of to quit smoking, change your habits –  those things that make you want a cigarette more than anything. If you  used to have a cigarette with your cup of coffee, switch to tea. Or, just take your coffee to a new spot – if you used to sit on the  back porch, try the kitchen table instead. Switching up the routine will  suppress those trigger switches that make you reach for a smoke without  thinking. If the taste of that cup of coffee (or beer… or a mixed drink…) makes  you feel like having a smoke to go along with it, try out our  antioxidant-rich AO ProVantage BLAST product to get the trigger taste  out of your mouth after you’ve enjoyed your beverage (and counteract the  free radicals raised by nicotine and other noxious substances). AO  Pro Vantage BLAST can keep halitosis at bay and thus may minimize your  desire to smoke – it’s a little harder to want to leave an ashtray taste  in a minty-fresh mouth. 


 

  • Consider Nicotine Replacement Therapy

When you stop  smoking, nicotine withdrawal may give you headaches, affect your mood,  or sap your energy. The craving for “just one drag” is tough. Nicotine  replacement therapy can curb these urges. Studies show that nicotine  gum, lozenges, and patches improve your chances of success when you’re  also in a quit-smoking program. 

  

  • Use medication

 If all else fails, try a pill or a patch. There are a range of  products on the market that aim to help you quit by satisfying the  chemical cravings for nicotine or by physically stopping the brain  chemistry that makes you want them in the first place. Talk to your  doctor to decide what over-the-counter or prescription medication best  fits your personality, your addiction, and your needs.
