Is it ill-advised to stop eating for a couple days to quit smoking?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO: Smoking is probably the worst thing you can do for your health.Continuing to smoke is way more unhealthy than anything you do to stop smoking.Not eating for a couple days is not esp.Unhealthy. I'm not sure how that will help you quit smoking but whatever works is worth a try.For other ideas see http://altmedicine.About.Com/od/therapiesfromrtoz/a/quit_smoking.Htm & www.Shareguide.Com/smoking.Html.
