Quitting Smoking

I quit smoking two weeks ago thanks to coming down with the flu. It's been easier than I thought, the first five days I was in bed with a fever and headache so smoking didn't even cross my mind. Now I'm busy coughing up years of phlegm buildup which makes me really not want to smoke again. I never had smoker's cough until after I quit.
So I've been cruising different websites looking for suggestions to help clear out the lungs faster and this is what I've found:
Drink a lot of water to help flush out the toxins.
Eat healthy, increase fruits and veggies.
Vitamin A may be linked to healing the lungs after quitting smoking.
Avoid sugar. This one is tough because I am experiencing the blood sugar drops they say is a pretty standard side effect to quitting smoking.
My next Internet search: I think I'll look for some carrot cake recipes. A dose of vitamin A and a bit of sugar sounds good to me.

  13. I comment when I especially enjoy a post on a blog or I have something to valuable to contribute to the discussion.
    Usually it is triggered by the passion communicated in the post I looked at.
    And after this post "Quitting Smoking". I was excited enough to create a thought :
    -P I actually do have 2 questions for you if it's allright. Is it simply me or does it look like like a few of the comments come across like they are left by brain dead folks? :-P And, if you are writing at additional sites, I'd like to keep up with you.

    Could you make a list the complete urls of all your shared
    pages like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?

  14. Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to
    make your point. You clearly know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could
    be giving us something informative to read?
