Smokers make many excuses for not quitting. One of them isrepparttar 'concentration con'. How many times have you heard a smoker say, 'I'd like to quit, but it helps me concentrate'. Maybe you've said it yourself ?

In reality, smoking doesn't help concentration from a medical viewpoint. Sorepparttar 115108 idea that smoking helps concentration is just a perception, or an imagined positive reason for not quitting.

It's true that withdrawal symptoms, starting not long after your last cigarette, cause feelings of irritability and restlessness. These feelings started because of cigarettes, and it's strange that another cigarette should berepparttar 115109 way to relieve them.

In fact, smoking makes concentration much harder, not easier. Although another cigarette temporarily relievesrepparttar 115110 symptoms caused byrepparttar 115111 cigarette inrepparttar 115112 first place,repparttar 115113 cigarette is notrepparttar 115114 aid to concentration which many smokers wrongly choose to believe.

Truth is, smoking another cigarette will make concentration progressively harder. With any drug, you eventually need more and more of it to producerepparttar 115115 same effect. A smoker will never be able to concentrate as well as a non-smoker. The more he smokes,repparttar 115116 less relief he'll get from each cigarette.

Let's look atrepparttar 115117 medical side ofrepparttar 115118 'concentration con'. Clogged arteries, caused by smoking, starverepparttar 115119 brain of oxygen and reduce our ability to concentrate. Carbon monoxide, produced by cigarettes, is well-known as a poison… not an aid to concentration.
