Present in tobacco, nicotine is as addictive as alcohol or cocaine, and taking it increases the risk of illness and disease. Passive smokers are also exposed to its dangers. Here are 7 natural ingredients to help you stop smoking and to eliminate the toxins present in your body. 

1) Orange, pomegranate and lemon detox juice

The vitamin C contained in these fruits will help ex-smokers to:

  • repair damaged tissue
  • improve blood circulation
  • eliminate toxins such as nicotine
  • increase the number of red blood cells

The action of the vitamin C will help your body get rid of of nicotine.

2) Broccoli

Broccoli is a cruciferous vegetable, a family of vegetables which is highly effective for eliminating toxins and the heavy metals present in the body. 

What’s more, several studies have shown that broccoli is an ideal food for naturally preventing cancer. It contains vitamin C and vitamin B5, which help the blood get rid of nicotine, among other toxins.

3) Ginger

Add a few grams of fresh ginger to your meals.

Just like the other ingredients on this list, ginger is effective for helping you stop smoking. It eliminates toxins such as nicotine from the body. Even if you still smoke and are trying to stop, the action of the ginger will help you because it gets rid of the toxin responsible for nicotine/smoking addiction.

4) Carrots, in a juice

Drinking carrots in a juice allows you to consume them in high quantities, which will help you to stop smoking easier. This is why it is recommended that you drink carrot juice every day while you are giving up smoking, or when you have succeeded. The vitamins A, B, C and K contained in carrots will drain your body of the toxins absorbed while you were smoking.

5) Raspberries: an anti-nicotine fruit?

According to the Institute of Health Science in the University of Hidalgo State in Mexico, raspberries could help you stop smoking.

This fruit is rich in ellagic acid, a substance which is capable of eliminating nicotine and other toxins from your body.

6) Spinach

Spinach contains vitamins and folic acid, substances which are indispensable to detoxing your body of nicotine. Eat it raw because it loses the majority of its benefits during cooking.

7) Peppers

Just like with spinach, peppers lose their vitamins and other benefits during cooking. For example, you could cut them finely (raw) and add them to a rice and tuna salad, accompanied by tomatoes.

Peppers contain vitamins C, B2 and B6, which are highly effective for detoxing the body.
