Dietary Changes for Cessation
for Nicotine Withdrawal
Certain dietary adjustments can reduce the palatability of cigarettes and help manage the weight gain and appetite changes that accompany nicotine cessation.
How it works
Fruits and vegetables make cigarettes taste worse (menthol and other flavouring interactions). Increased fibre and protein help manage the increased appetite that follows nicotine's metabolic effects wearing off.
What to watch for
Avoiding alcohol is particularly important early in a quit attempt — alcohol is strongly associated with relapse. Weight concern deters many quitters; addressing it proactively improves outcomes.
