Фотография "How quitting smoking affects your mental health Quitting smoking is a challenge for most people who are used to lighting up as part of their daily routine, but it can be particularly difficult if you struggle with your mental health. We explore how to make the process as painless as possible, and the emotional benefits of stubbing out the habit. If you're a smoker, chances are you've thought about quitting. According to Public Health England, around 60% of the 6.1 million smokers in England say they want to quit, and nearly one in five say they want to stub out the habit within the next three months. However, this is often far from an easy ride. And it can be particularly difficult if you struggle with your mental health. Many people use smoking as a form of self-medication, lighting up as a way to temporarily relieve stress. This means trying to quit can stir up some uncomfortable feelings. According to Professor Ann McNeill, a professor of tobacco addiction at King's College London and a tobacco policy expert, it is easy to see why so many people associate smoking with stress relief. "After a short period of not smoking, many smokers will start to feel the need for a cigarette, and other withdrawal symptoms such as feeling irritable or on edge become apparent," she says. "Having a cigarette relieves such discomfort, so smokers believe that smoking relieves their stress." She points out, however, that this reprieve in the withdrawal symptoms should not be confused with actual mental health benefits. In fact, something close to the opposite is true. "Research that followed up smokers before and after quitting found that stopping smoking was associated with improvements in mental health, both for smokers with and without mental health problems," she says. "This is important. We often talk about how smoking damages people physically, and this has been heavily researched. How smoking affects mental health is less well researched and needs much greater attention.""
Фотография "How To Clean Your Teeth And Gums There is a right way to brush and floss your #teeth. Every day: Gently brush your teeth on all sides with a soft-bristle brush and fluoride #toothpaste. Use small circular motions and short back-and-forth strokes. Brush carefully and gently along your gum line. Lightly brush your tongue to help keep your mouth clean. Clean around your teeth with dental floss. #Careful flossing removes plaque and leftover food that a toothbrush can't reach. Rinse after you floss. #People with arthritis or other conditions that limit hand motion may find it hard to hold and use a toothbrush. Some helpful tips are: Use an electric or battery-operated toothbrush. Slide a bicycle grip or foam tube over the handle of the toothbrush. Buy a #toothbrush with a larger handle. Attach the toothbrush handle to your hand with a wide elastic band. See your dentist if brushing or flossing causes your gums to bleed or hurts your mouth. If you have trouble flossing, a floss holder may help. Ask your #dentist to show you the right way to #floss."
