Those who smoke know it pretty well how hard it is to quit smoking. You feel guilty for this bad habit of yours but can’t help with it. Quitting smoking is not that easy as the tobacco manufacturers write on the packets ‘Quit Smoking’. The smokers already know the potential harm smoking have on your health, but they can’t overcome their addiction. You must have been tired trying the nicotine patches and gums, but none of them seemed to help. How about trying a home remedy for it?

All you need is:
1 orange
1 grapefruit
1 cup chamomile tea
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp jojoba oil
Some oregano
1 tsp coconut oil
Making this concoction is easier than you’ve imagined. Just extract the juices from oranges and grapefruit. Add the other ingredients to it. Mix it well. Fill the concoction in a bottle. Inhale the smell or just rub some on your nose whenever you go through the craving for cigarettes.
This remedy has so far worked for many. It takes some time to get rid of the urge completely. So be patient with it.

6. Consume orange juice or lemon juice 2-3 times a day to keep yourself away from smoking. Smoking sucks the vitamin C out of your body. These juices will also replenish your body with vitamin C.
