Harmful aspects of smoking and remedies

It is said that a cigarette has fire at one end and a fool at the other. Although this is just a joke about smoking, know, smoking is increasing silently. Understand your stroke. By the time the matter becomes more visible and clear to you, it may be too late. You can get no more while being conscious.

Although smoking was once considered a status symbol, in the last century, extensive campaigns around the world and the National Professor of Medicine in Bangladesh Dr. A smoker is considered to be the most ignorant person in society since the anti-smoking movement 'modern' led by Nurul Islam started. Rather than being a status symbol, smoking is now considered a taboo act.

Do smokers who are addicted to cigarettes know what they are drinking? With smoking, they are inhaling about 4000 types of chemicals, all of which are poisons for the body. One of them is nicotine. The most frightening thing is that this nicotine causes unwanted contractions in the walls of the brain. As a result, blood flow to the arteries is disrupted and naturally increases his risk of stroke. Studies have shown that a smoker has a much higher risk of having a stroke than anyone else.

It is important to know that for those who are already suffering from stroke, even a single cigarette can cause death due to stroke. Maybe due to some unexpected incident, you are already broken, beaten, and suffering from severe anxiety. As we already know, the blood vessels of the brain are narrowed in a stroke. In addition, you smoke cigarettes and take walks as a so-called stress reliever. On the other hand, the contraction of arteries can increase suddenly and stroke-like accidents can happen at any time.

Not only that, smoking increases the risk of stroke in many ways. For example, smoking reduces the amount of HDL cholesterol, which is good for the body and increases the amount of bad LDL cholesterol.

Also, smoking is not known to cause cancer. There are other risks as well. Studies have shown that, on average, smokers die 22 years earlier than non-smokers. According to the World Health Organization, around 500,000 people die every year in the world due to smoking-related diseases alone.

A smoker only harms himself, no; By showing extreme ignorance, he is also harming the people and environment around him. It is said that passive smoking is no less harmful than direct smoking. In other words, a smoker's family members and fellow loved ones including his/her spouse and children are not free from the risk of cigarette smoke.

Therefore, for the health of the brain, as well as for the overall health and well-being of ourselves and our loved ones, we need to create a smoke-free healthy, and beautiful environment.
 

You too can get rid of the bad habit of smoking

We already know about the risks of stroke, one of which is smoking. We can say, this is a risk, from which you can get out if you want. And smoking cessation is very important for stroke prevention and cure.

You can follow an effective method to quit smoking. In the last two decades, countless people have been completely freed from this habit by following this method.

1. No commitment is really needed to quit smoking, just your own will and decision are enough.
2. Many people do not keep cigarettes in their pockets thinking of quitting. Think, you will want to eat only if you have it in your pocket. They don't realize that the desire to smoke will be greater if not accompanied. If you don't keep the cigarette in your pocket, it will be seen that you are asking for cigarettes from someone else. So keep cigarettes and matches in your pocket.
3. Just be careful when you smoke. The desire to smoke arises in everyone at different times. Someone smokes a cigarette while talking on the telephone, someone at the beginning of a discussion, someone while watching TV, someone after a meal, someone else sipping a cup of tea. During these times, he smokes cigarettes without realizing it. From today you should refrain from smoking only while doing other things. If noticed after smoking. If you quit smoking, ask yourself if you really want to smoke now.
4. If you really want to smoke a cigarette, stop doing everything else and smoke a cigarette. Smoke cigarettes carefully.
5. Pay attention to your body while smoking. Close your eyes and take a drag on the cigarette and observe the cigarette smoke passing through the nose. It is gradually taking the shape of a snake. When it reaches the lungs, it lifts the hood and pours out the poison called nicotine. Create for a moment the feeling that you would feel in your body and mind when bitten by a poisonous snake. Act out the feeling if it doesn't come naturally. (Imagine that you are doing a play on stage. In the play, you have to play the role of a passerby who has been bitten by a snake. Do the same psychological reaction you would have if you were actually bitten by a snake.) Observe the reaction of your nose, mouth, throat, heart, and stomach in your mind's eye.
6. Take another drag on the cigarette. Observe, that another gokhara snake is going towards the lungs. Repeat the process as before.
7. Finish the entire cigarette in this manner. Write down your feelings during this whole process in a paper or diary.
8. Remember, do not smoke in front of others or while doing any other work. When you want to smoke a cigarette, leave everything else aside and smoke a cigarette while sitting quietly.

If you continue this process for a few days, you will soon see that your body and mind will reject cigarettes on their own. Cough is coming when I pull on the cigarette. I feel conflicted. It started to smell like cigarette smoke. In this way, you can get rid of the bad habit of smoking very easily. You can put the power of meditation to good use when it comes to quitting smoking.
 

Exercise

Exercise is an important adjunct to stroke recovery through mind-body wellness and lifestyle changes. Why? God has created our body in such a way that if you work or suffer you will be fine.

"Allah says in Surah Al-Balad verse 4 of the Holy Qur'an - "Verily We have created man into toil and struggle."

But in the name of being well, today we have drowned in comfort, we have become averse to labor, i.e. we consider manual labor unimportant. But if we look around a little, we will see that those who are doing physical work, spending their lives through hard work day and night, are comparatively better off. They are suffering less from stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, etc.

We have become so accustomed to modern city life that day after day we don't even get a chance to do manual labor. But there is no substitute for physical labor to stay healthy.

Now that our need for physical exertion has been greatly reduced due to numerous conveniences in life, we also have to exercise consciously and in a planned way if we want to stay healthy. Because there is no alternative to physical activity for health. And this conscious and planned effort can be exercised.

Regularly walk for 30 minutes to an hour every day, not only to prevent and cure strokes but also for your overall health. When you add regular walking, you fully reap all the benefits of exercise. And regular walking is very important for the health of stroke patients. Why?

First, as we already know, HDA cholesterol is good for our body. Although it is less than needed, walking increases the amount of HDL cholesterol in the body.

If you walk regularly, excess body weight will be reduced. Note that excess weight is one of the causes of stroke. Not only that, regular walking reduces the risk of Alzheimer's, and dementia caused by age, and more or less everyone knows the importance of regular walking in controlling high blood pressure and diabetes.

How to walk far? Your walking speed will be four miles per hour. That is about 100 steps per minute. But don't start walking at this pace on the first day, increase the walking speed a little bit every day. If the cardiologist doesn't allow you to walk at four miles an hour based on your heart condition, walk as he says.
