Do students who smoke always feel that their food intake and weight have increased after quitting smoking?
Studies have shown that increased food intake is associated with nicotine withdrawal symptoms, such as increased appetite and taste sensitivity, especially to sweets.
In addition, people who replace cigarettes with food can increase their daily energy intake.
Therefore, experts do not recommend quitting smoking and losing weight at the same time. As long as you persist, the weight gained when quitting smoking can be easily lost.
