Smokers will be advised to reduce smoking consumption for at least half of their total consumption in the next month. Finally, all smokers were warned to keep in mind that the current attempt to reduce smoking is an intermediate step before the complete cessation.
Smokers will be asked to do regular activities for three or four times per week, and to have a healthy and balanced diet, having more fruit and vegetables which are rich in vitamins, high in nutrition yet low in calories. In the whole process, advises will not refer to smoking cessation or smoking reduction.
