This book contains good information on the science behind nicotine addition. For anyone sincerely trying to quit smoking, it is useful – if you can spend the pedantic “sure that it’s hard, but are not you worth?” tone. The recipes are good. Rating: 2 / 5

This book was extremely helpful in my attempt to quit smoking. It is only three weeks, but I feel lucky to have done so far. Without common sense guidelines and advice in this book, I doubt I would have done the first week. This is a clear, concise and factual to quit and stay smoke-free. The menu plans make sense and are easy to follow. The recipes are great – have not yet tried, but the ones I had are delicious. Information on nutritional supplements and are also very good. There is much to consider and take into consideration when you stop smoking, and the authors explain why the management of each type of nutrient. and as a bonus, I even lost 2 pounds =] Rating: 5 / 5

Are you smoking to avoid weight gain? If so, you’re not alone. Forty percent of women smokers is that as a way to control their weight – 25% would like to quit but continue to do so for fear of gaining weight. In addition, 55% of smokers who report little or no confidence that weight control is possible without the use of nicotine. This book challenges traditional beliefs about smoking and weight, and is filled with strategies to prepare to leave cigarettes in your past. The truth is, there may be a slight initial increase in weight in the months immediately after quitting, but in the long run, ex-smokers have not been proven for weight gain after quitting. The authors of this book have created a series of self-evaluation to assess your personality, smoking, or for deeper reasons for the use of nicotine can be a positive behavior. Is this normal? Or biochemistry? Each opportunity will require a different approach. Once you know, you can use one of many strategies designed to reduce the craving for nicotine and significantly improve the chances of continued success in quitting. OF In my experience, understand the cause of a behavior is always the starting point to change this behavior; Donkersloot and Ferry do an outstanding job of laying the groundwork for kicking one of the most powerful addiction known to the man. And they do not stop there! The second half of the book of menus, recipes, strategies and step by step, in a detailed and useful if you really want to stop smoking, there is something for everyone those who read this book. There is nothing comparable currently available, so I highly recommend as a must read. Monika M. Woolsey, MS, RD Rating: 5 / 5
